Should users be penalized for spamming? - Page 3

freeklaus · 01-05-2008, 01:24 PM

how is it not spamming? Spam is a matter of opinion. one person's spam is anothers gold mine....... like it or not that is how a shitload of info gets moved from person to person.......... You can choose whether or not to click on a thread.
I agree with that annoying "spam" totally off the wall, blatent, no other purpose than to get a ad out is bullshit, But I have found most anything useful from traffic sources to affiliate programs thru what many would call spam....... when I got the email from Netpond telling me about a new forum many moons ago I didn't ask for it ........
Sig's are one of the reasons many good posters post, I personally like sigs, have found many good resources. It's the bullshit posts that go along with them that's annoying and I don't mean crap i don't agree with, I mean the "Good post" - " I agree, that bad" - "

" and that shit.....
In the last few years I have quite posting anything of any real value and am prob. on more "ignore" lists than I can count, i admit, so I am one to talk but than again what the fuck do I know?..........

They see their points balance as -500 points.

The only people who'd loose any sleep over the deduction of 500 np points are the poor souls who bizarrely, use them as some form of income - weirdo's

I honestly don't think I'd ever even consider putting anyone on ignore. Especially not the annoying ones

You know the people you dislike are the ones that help you post more?

How is nickel-whoring begging? You're neither an advertiser here nor do you own Netpond.
