Thread: Spam?!

    We had one, but then they closed FeedBack.

    And if you ever put up a spam forum I would have to slap you with my pimp hand until you get rid of it. This would become a breeding ground for annoying people who will do nothing but spam up the rest of my threads, with spam far worse than the most horridly done of spam we have now. There would be no more good spam, and that would sadden me so.

    My spam needs are fulfilled by General Chat. What would be the point of a spam forum? It seems like a rather foolish idea.

    I think a compromise should be made. Instead of an all out spam forum we should just lift the spam restrictions on EoEO. That would make this place a whole hell of a lot better.

    Or, you know, bring back the Feedback Forum.

    xD, just kidding!

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    If you make a spam forum, I'm coming to your houses with napalm.

    I'd threaten to leave if a spam forum was made, but I don't want to encourage anyone.

    No. I don’t think EoFF is above having a spam forum, but I also don’t think a spam forum will do EoFF any justice.

    I am voting ‘Yes.’, because I think ‘No.’ may be a little too bold for my poll tastes.

    Wait? You mean General Chat already wasn't a spam forum?

    What a silly question. Of course the answer is No to a Spam Forum for EoFF.

    I would have liked a spam forum before I found out about user notes, and it still might be fun.

    BUT, Spam is a corruptor of decent writing, and it is an absolute absence of thought, and it demeans the entire purpose of coming to a place like this.

    In truth, spam is an atrocity. It is an addictive atrocirty that spreads like AIDS, and has been the death of some forums I've seen. Legalizing it with an entir forum could cause the death of this one here.

    General chat is enough. You can see the effects of general chat spamminess permeate the other forums. Imagine the shock waves from a truly SPAM forum.

    general chat is enough fun and not out of control. a spam forum would give EoFF a bad name if the language rescrictions weren't in place and overall i just dont like it. there are other places where people can waste time spamming.
