CinnamonStar Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Spam stands for Stupid, Pointless and Annoying Messages. What constitutes or defines spam?1.) Extremely short posts2.) Pointless (off-topic) posts3.) Return appearances4.) Conversational posts5.) Double-posting6.) Bumping threads ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1.) Extremely short postsStuff like "Yes", "Okay", "I don't know", "We know that", et cetera. If you don't have anything to say about a topic, stay out of it. If someone asks a question, DON'T simply say that you don't know the answer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2.) Pointless postsPosts that have nothing to do with the topic. If the conversation sways off topic, that's one thing. Also, keep topics where they belong. Don't post a question asking about avatar help on the Custom Cards board. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.) Return appearancesAka "Didn't I just see that one a few pages ago?" Please, people, do yourselves a favor and check if there isn't a thread having to do with what you're about to post. If you're asking a question, see no one asked it before you and you're missing out on an answer. And If you start a thread just to say you caught a certain legendary pokemon with an Ultra ball, when there is already a thread about this particular Pokemon - THAT is also SPAM, and it belongs in that thread. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4.) Conversational postsThese are akin to a guy talking loudly on his cell phone during a club meeting. You're here to discuss topics with all the members of the board. If you want to talk to someone in specific - USE PRIVATE MESSAGES, e-mail or any IM programm. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.) Double / Triple posting, etc.When you post please DO NOT make another post which directly follows that one, but use the EDIT button. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6.) Bumping threadsDon't post in thread which are too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
