    Now we're going to get another thread from the 50% of the members who want more spam, and then two months later this thread will pop up again. I swear the members of this board are all 50% one way and 50% the exact opposite. You people should see the staff evaluation forms; there are so many that are exact freaking opposites.

    How about a new sub-forum entitled "Eternal Spamnation" or something, where people can write anything and everything they want without restriction? Nothing useful or important will get said or discussed, so 'General Chat' and EoEO can go back to their old purposes. After a while, people would lose interest in pointless, obnoxious spam and the spam forum would fade into disuse.

    So let 50% of the people have the majority of the forum to spam to death like they do now, and give the other 50% at least one forum like EoEO to be serious in. I don't care if people spam their brains out as long as there's one place where people aren't total jerks. I used to wish that there was one message board out of the 99.9999% of MB's that was a nice place to talk instead of pure garbage, but apparently people can't live without making constant mindless chatter and flaming each other on a regular basis, so if I have to settle for one forum on one message board I will. General Chat has always been a lost cause, I don't even care about it. I don't care about anything but EoEO.

    Really? You will show them to us There are no names after all so no one will be the wiser.

    Eternal Spamnation would never die. If you have seen The Man's board you would soon learn how much MORE active that board is compared to the other ones. It is so much fun to just talk about what ever you want and to post in pointless threads.

    Also wasn't EoEO suppose to always be General Chat junior except serious. For as long as I can remember the staff has always said 'A topic can go in either EoEO or General Chat. It is up to the poster' Is that changed now?

    No, it hasn't changed. It's just that whatever goes into EoEO has to be treated seriously and not get spammed up. Even if you start a thread on What is your favourite ice cream?

    Cool Although it is kind of hard to keep a topic such as 'What kind of Ice Cream do you like?' not a spam topic but we shall see *Evil*

    I agree again. EoEO had the appeal of being meaningful and peaceful, a place where important matters could be discussed productively. It'd be a shame if that was undermined.

    why don't you just move any non-serious topics in EoEo (like that wedding topic) to gen chat.

    That wedding topic thread actually started out as serious, but it got turned into non-serious very quickly.

    The actual point of that thread was to ask about a possible place on the internet to hold a wedding. I had suggested a private room w/ invites only as an idea, but it degenerated from there, like Leeza said. Regrettably, I was also part of the spam.

    Yeah, I completely understand and agree that EoEo should't be used in spamming...but that wedding thread, man, I just couldn't resist.

    *had never seen that flaming thread between The Man, Akuma etc before, by the way* =O Oh mine...
