J-Max Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 I hope you know that you are Spamming the Spammers Thread with things like "REPORTED!" or "SPAM!" Think of it this way. Spammer Posts Dumb Topic - Persom comes in to say "SPAM" hence they are Spamming - Someone like me comes in and says for people to just report it so I am then Spamming. See where we are going with this? There is a Report Button. Use it. Nothing irritates me more then seeing 1 or 2 word responses just to increase Post Count. In doing this I have now Spammed the General Section but I wanted all of you to know my feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silencerleader Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 So...this is spam XDWho cares? I just hate it how one person reports something and then the person after him/her does another report X_XI mean...get real!!And if you can't stand a "REPORTED" then get over it.

J-Max Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 It irritates me when people seem to do it for a extra Post to their Post Count. Yes Post Count isn't a big deal but you would be surprised at how people trasure things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Max Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Excuse my Spelling. I have a habit of typing very fast lol. Sorry I just had to let it out that's all. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesusofChaos™ Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 The thing is i dont like the new reporting system. You have to go through 2 screens to see reported posts. I prefered the old look where in the top left hand corner it tells u if there are any new reported posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoshIcy Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Lol I would vent about this myself. But I didnt wanna create such a topic. [i discuss this with an old member a lot, and don't ask for his/her name. I wont answer it.]But unless I want to attempt to change the topic from being in the wrong section, or adjust it from being SPAM I won't post in it.... So yeah, your point is well taken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willieh Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 This is spam within itself. However I agree with you. The incompetence of those who shout out "THIS IS SPAM!!!" as if the world's going to explode if somebody doesn't point out a blatantly obvious fact about a thread is very goddam annoying. Hopefully after reading this thread some people will learn that you aren't supposed to post messages such as "This is spam!" or "REPORTED!" or even "Don't post below this post, it's spam" rather than reporting the thread and getting on with your day.

JesusofChaos™ Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 The only people that post "Dont post below this post, it's spam" are mods. They are trying to stop people posting things like "this is spam" and by posting what they do, i means they can warn people who post afterwards for spamming and also keep the topic replies to a minimum until the approiate mod gets there.
