Cookie's the only one that spoke out about it.  2 Months ago I was considering leaving because I saw that this forum wasn't what it was when I joined, and I didn't feel that I could help anyone or learn from anyone here because of the spam.  But I stayed... :)

I've noticed forums going down for quite a while now, Cookie's absense made me decide to speak up about it and try to sort it out, see Forum feature requests! + cry out to helpers! IMPORTANT PLEASE READ!!! (i edited later on after talking about it with Cookie on MSNM..i said he could post his rant, he told me i could edit my post and tell he feels the same..so now that post comes from the both of us).

Indeed. "People won't have anywhere to post their spam!" - don't spam at all then? If you must spam then just type it into a notepad file and then delete it. Post it on your website. Do anything but make others have to sort through your total crap to get to useful stuff!


I can make a forum especially made for spam, people can spam there, and post useful things here...8-)


[edit] The only bad thing is that it might promote spamming in other forums [/edit]

RE: Okay.. Pissed off me
i'm just wondering does patchou ever update the faq on the msgplus website? maybe adding a link to that to draw attention to the faq would be a good idea and maybe stop some people from regesting, and ending up spamming with repedative questions.

It would be better, when people are regestering, they have to view the rules before being allowed to post, they also should have to stay on it for atleast 30 seconds and not being able to skip it

RE: Okay.. Pissed off me
* Pipish was expecting this sort of post from surfi soon

tbh i think that th newer generation of members need to be tought of the rules about half way sort of through the time i was here we had a major crackdown on rules ect. i even spoke to surfi personally on my own behaviour and was given a rude awakining he realy got through to me and i felt like i had to be good and not spam

if anyone of you feel like you are treated as a spammer do not consult an admin as i did (i was only little at 11) but read the rules about three or four times all of it and memorise it and when you are about to make a post think

1. is this post useful/helpful
2. is it worded correctly and not abreveated ect.
3. do not just make silly posts containg emotions and 1 word
4.no flaming bagging ect.

thats my input on the situation

(that might not make much scence to people but sorry i am not the best of speller :) )
