Joetheeskimo Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 This thread may be considered spam and closed, but I have to say it. I HATE SPAM. Whenever I see someone post some completely moronic material in a good thread, and get it closed, I want to reach my hand right through my screen, through my cable, out of their screen, and strangle them to death. I just feel thisunusually strong hatred towards spammers. I don't know if this is unusual. Does anyone else feel this way? Some examples are: Swamp Awards 2003. rptheHotRod (sadly, but true) posted some spam and got a perfectly good thread closed. "I like cheescake?!" What the hell?? Come ON, rp, you're experienced enough to have gotten over spamming. Why is it OK to bash Christianity. Homocuncul posted some spam, I started getting all mad at him, and we eventually both got yelled at by a moderator. Let's start a bar fight. Master William came out of no where and said, "I like pie." WTF?! Even MMMPie, who devotes his life to pie, doesn't post spam about such a stupid thing! Anyway. *Takes a chill pill.* Please give me your opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord60 Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 You've brought up a good point. Yes I remember the whole pie thing and I am sick of it frankly I think ppl who start that pie $hit needs to be banned for awhile. It getting old ppl and no one cares. No offense to those who posted it but to future ppl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord60 Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 haha thats why I went back to my post and changed it so I wouldn't offend him I respect BawBag™ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawBag™ Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Originally posted by joetheeskimo5 Haha, I actually thought you were spamming for a moment.. You seemed a little worked up so it was appropriate....... But seriously just ignore spam(mers). As long as there are boards to post on and e-mails to be sent etc. there will always be spam. If it gets to you then thats exactly what they want (as I see it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemme w/Stick Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Hmm, it seems like this thread is already on its way to become spam. No offense to any of you. Hmm, I as all other here at the forums hate spam. But the only thing we can do about spam, is to report it to an online moderator. At least thats what I do to keep these forums clear of spam . -Clemme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joetheeskimo Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 Originally posted by Clemme w/Stick Hmm, it seems like this thread is already on its way to become spam. No offense to any of you. What I consider spam is posts completely off-topic, with absolutely no relevance to the topic. If we go off-topic a little, I don't consider it spam./ At east when people do go a little off-topic, it doesn't annoy me like it does when they go completely off-topic.

BongoBob Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I rhink the ocassional spam can be quite funny. Such as RPs one in the swamp awards. I liked it. But people afterhim kept the spam flowin. Or at least RP could have put more into that post, like what type of cheesecake is his favorite, and if he likes it with ice cream. Yuuuummmmmmm. Cheesecake. What were we talking about again I hate spam that does not make me laugh, such as "I agree", or the occasional but now even more frequent one smilie posts. But the ones that have no point to the thread whatsoever and come way out of left field, I actually enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLord60 Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Well as a Administrator on our mods forums we get alot of spam and it drives me nuts. I think I should just start deleting their post. Couldn't they just do that here cause it is annoying having to read two or more pages in a row of all spam messages. Its just stupid.

Joetheeskimo Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 Uh...could you tell me exactly why? I mean, why do you think completely off-topic stuff is funny? How is "I like cheescake" funny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBob Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Well, I find this extremly funny. I like random things, and they make me laugh. What RP said was completely random, and made me almost fall out of my chair. What I hate is*edit*NM Sorry Kbell. Don't want to get anyone mad. I don't want to take any crap from you either. Sorry to have put that. PS:If you're a gamer, check the entire archives of that site. It took me on 56k 2 hours to read them all.

KBell Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 heh, i can name a few people off the top of my head that spam, and it's not a coincidence that they are all under the age of 15. I guess they're not mature enough to know what's spam and what isn't. And apperently they're more worried about their post count rather than the quality of their posts. They just don't know that people give you respect for what you post, not how much you post. EDIT- Bongo, don't start a flame war, because right now your post just pissed the hell out of me. Get out of this thread if you intend to point a finger at me because frankly i don't want to take any crap from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BongoBob Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 To each his own joe. And KBell, I am sorry if I pissed you off, I will edit that, but I think you should ease up. Let the mods take care of it. I am sorry KBell, I don't want to start a flame war(though I always seem too every month or so ),but that's one of the Mods jobs. *editing* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jed Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 None of you have a leg to stand on. Staff decide on what's appropriate and what's not, and IMO a lot of you need to chill out on what's spam...it's a forum. If this thread had any justification, it would belong in JK.net's Feedback Forum. Singling out people is lowly, people. Lowly. And for the benefit of the people who were not disciplined since there's no reason for them to be, I'm editing out joe's first post. Make a spectacle out of people, and I'll make a spectacle out of you. Thread's closed, and everyone needs to go cool off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
