the worst thing in the world

[eestlinc]

when you make a perfectly good thread and a bunch of people come along and ruin it with meaningless spam and silly talk that isn't even funny. If I had any respect for myself I would just delete the thread completely.

hmm...

Don't you hate when that happens?

[Linus]

No.

[eestlinc]

that's because your threads aren't perfectly good like mine.

[Leeza]

I never start threads, but...yes, I hate it when that happens to other threads.

[eestlinc]

maybe you should start

[Agent Proto]

Oh yes, I hate that. :( Stupid spam ruins thread. Quality entertainment, doesn't though. It enhances the value of the thread.

[eestlinc]

you know how you can put certain members on ignore? I think you should be able to block certain people from replying in your threads.

[SomethingBig]

I've never seen that happen. Got any examples?

Meh, I guess I can tolerate spam to some extent.

[Erdrick Holmes]

What kind of crap is this you speak of, eest?

[Meat Puppet]

If you blocked certain people from replying in your threads that'd be like, racist. You might as well burn me on a stake. Or ask me to get banned.

[Del Murder]

Not racist, elitist.

I've never had the problem myself. My threads start out spammy, but eventually end up with a topic. Now <i>that</i> sucks.

[Strider]

This seems to happen a lot lately in every single newbie thread that comes along. Yeah.

I knew that. I was just testing you.

*Rubs chin* What a coincidence. In a forum that I mod in, we recently had a boom of newbies, and with it, a boom of spam and nonsensical things. What is it with noobs and spamming?

[Meat Puppet]

It's very, very fun. Not so fun when you're banned, but fun while it lasts. Why? Um,..

[eestlinc]

in order for spam to be fun it actually has to be funny to someone besides yourself.

[Del Murder]

Yeah, like all the people on this board who speak German. :p

[Meat Puppet]

Does it count if both your personalities find it funny.

[eestlinc]

those who speak german would be able to enjoy it except all the mess that gets in the way.

[Logan]

I don't make threads (often), so I don't have this problem at all, har.

[Ultimate_Sandwich]

Heh, Germans... Oh well, time for some ironic meaningless spam:

THIS MESSAGE GOES OUT TO ALL ADMINS:
What does it take to get a custom title around here? I was rather fond of the "sandwich lord" subtitle I'd earned and, I uh, kinda want it back. Sorry, I just didn't know where to ask. And where better than a thread about disrupting topic changes?

Oh, and my damn sig won't show up. wutthaddeelwitdat?

Anyway... Lat0rs

*Dylan

*edit* Ok, I see the sig. Great. Go home.

[eestlinc]

omg

*cut the bread in half*

they might give you a custom title since you aren't really a newbie but it normally takes 8 months.

[Ultimate_Sandwich]

I know that, dude. I spent the 8 months here the first time to get it. I must now try to retrieve it. I'll need two hobbits and a horse; help a brother out?

Martha Steward is guilty!! (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040306/ap_on_bi_ge/martha_stewart&cid=509&ncid=716)

I can't believe this crap. I wonder what the media is going to cover next. I want a cookie though. What do you guys think about Martha?

[Yamaneko]

There are no good threads, only good threads to close.

[eestlinc]

this one seems to be a prime candidate now, thanks to PG.

[Mr. Graves]

Yeah, it bugs me. But, I just post in it and ignore the spaminess of it.

[Meat Puppet]

I don't mind the spaminess I read it anyway, if you don't like spaminess you can always just not read it, or run away like.

[Spuuky]

It's worse when people think that their threads are perfectly good when they obviously aren't.

[eestlinc]

It's not my fault if you are too jaded to enjoy my threads.

[Meat Puppet]

I thought that one with all the german crap was a good, humourous thread. If I could've understood German I probably would not have, however.

[Jack]

Ignore spam, elistism sucks.

Remember we were all Spamming newbies one time. Even BoB was........

Scheiße geschehen ab und zu.

[Enoki]

I love SPAM!

[Maxico]

Usless fact about spam: The word spam originated from a forum where an admin accidentaly posted 200 of the same news post. One member quoted the monty python sketch "spam spam spam spam spam....ect" and the name stuck.

I wonder if this forum could invent a word that is used all over the world (well the internet part of it anyway)

I've never actualy tasted spam

oh uh, yeah, spamming up threads in bad.

[Enoki]

You've never had spam? spam is great!! whereas SPAM is bad! or something......*confused*
