What's spamposting and what's not

Post by Zarvon » Thu Aug 22, 2013 12:33 pm

I haven't created a topic in a while, but this really, really needs to be said.

What's not spamming -

- Any reply that has substance. Even if it's not related to craftland, if you're saying something that matters, it's not spam.
- Replying to everything that is ever posted. As long as it has substance and you're adding something, you're good.
- Posting on a ban appeal where you're directly involved in the ban (i.e. he griefed you).

What IS spamming:

- Posting useless replies. This doesn't mean you can't just post :thumbsup: to show your support; that's fine. It DOES mean, however, that you shouldn't just post "lol" when someone talks about farts.
- Forum "games". Posting about your favorite candy is fine, playing post farming games is not. Go play minecraft.
- Posting anything in the ban appeal that doesn't relate to the ban. Yes, I know, I used to do this, but I no longer do.
- Double posting. Here's an example:

GOOD:
Zarvon posts something.
Vepas posts something.
Zarvon posts a reply.
Blackjack asks a question.
Zarvon replies.

BAD:
Zarvon posts something.
Vepas posts something.
Zarvon posts something.
Zarvon points out an error in his own grammar.
Zarvon posts another random reply.

FOR GOD'S SAKE CONSOLIDATE YOUR POSTS, PEOPLE!

Ragefest over. Please, please, stop spamming. I'd like this or something like it to be stickied or made as an announcement, but since I'm new here I want to let someone else do it.

Since a topic that completely voided this, and was basically only made up of spam-posts it was deleted.

Eh? Not clear what this means, were there posts above you that got deleted?

Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, some people just abuse the privilege.

...Consolidated. Apologies, but as an admin that's probably not a great example to set.. xD
