The spam.. it's not even funny anymore

I believe avatar's and status should be taken out.. why? Because look what it brings.. SPAM.. I just come to the forum and look in the general discussion.. around 15 replies in a row by TOT GP1 and they are all less than 2 lines in length.. I mean seriously.. So what you have a high post count and wow you get an avatar..

Everyone will hate you for spamming the entire forums with stupid one line sentances.. I swear we need some new moderators.. Someone that can clean up all the one line crap and pointless bickering that's happening in the forums. I will gladly become a moderator even though I know it would be extremely hard to put up with all the people spamming.

Now that I have said my peace, watch this topic get filled full of stupid messages just so they can raise their post counts.

I agree with the new mod idea...

But Ive wanted the words under my name for a while, I dont spam though and people who do should have minor ban from forums

I think what needs to be done, is someone looks for a spammer that has spammed recently.. then goes through and checks more of their posts.. all the spam they find, they delete.. this way the people spamming have their post count dramatacally decreased. I think someone maybe unixmad was doing it one time but it's still pretty bad.

You registered in July... when was spam EVER funny? Oh that's right.... IT WASN'T! I think this thread is just spam. I see you spamming all of the time just to get to 500 or 1,000.

Ok wiseguy, go through all my posts and find 10 posts of mine that are one line spam. I'm sure you would have some difficulty. And I could care less for an avatar.. wow, a picture under your name and a custom title, I feel so special now.

I was talking about NeoKnight.. marle posted it while I was still typing mine.. seeing as how my posts are more than one line long, it would take a bit more time for me to write them.

Unlike Marle who spams in an anti-spam thread.. and she's police for graal? Please, how about queen spammer.

You want us to search through mountains of pages to find their posts and delete them? Sorry bub, no can do. My job is tough enough as it is.

The Death Star was destroyed, and the Empire routed. For now. But the fight would go on. I knew I had much to make up for. Marskan still hated me, and for a good reason. Raider still wouldn't talk to me, and a lot of young pilots had died because I had made them feel invincible. I doubted that I would ever be able to atone for my mistakes.
At least Lynia didn't hate me. Now that the immediate threat was over, she'd promised to spend more time with me. So I had hope. And I had a mission. Like Luke, I would one day learn to master the Jedi way and once and for all banish the taint of the Dark Side within me.

you're right though, it's dumb looking at topics i'm interested in and people posting dumb things.
except there's nothing that really can be done about it, and vermain and icehawk are doing fine.

Exactly.. I'm just sick of going to topics that I'm interested in and finding nothing but spam.. or going to a topic I have created and seeing like 30 replies, and I go into it and it's nothing but spam. It's just annoying, and no I am not running for mod, I could care less about being mod, I'm just saying that if I was a mod I would be doing something about it, but since I'm not I am arguing for the current mods to do more.

You're stupid for the simple fact that you must think being a mod is easy.

It's very hard to go through posts in a thread, look for spam and delete them, very time consuming.
