Yeah, I kinda felt like some people were just posting stuff to increase post count, at least it seemed like since there post just said what others had already said but without any personal opinion |
Spam = lots of crap that doesn't apply?
OT = one or two post that also include some sort of OT disclaimer? I ask coz we tend to go OT a good bit also. Spam is epidemic, but OT happens more like an occasional head-cold, so I ask. |
Going off topic counts as spam too.
|
But, isn't going off topic what makes this forum so fun?
|
Thats what MoS is for! You can go off topic all you want on there ^^
|
When will a topic be moved to the MoS. I mean after how many pages of spam?
Or how is this really gonna work. Would necroposting also be considered spam?! |
Mods have the ability to yoink posts from a thread and move them to another thread. When we move them, we have the option to make a new thread, or move them to an existing thread.
As for necroposting, we just close the thread. |
Oh okay. Cool.
|
Yeah, see I would have defined Spam as a series of posts that have no purpose in general - just lots of back & forth that basically hi-jacked the thread and made it too full of junk for anyone to even care to follow anymore.
Whereas OT is generally one or two comments that did not serve to hi-jack the entire thread but were just more like "Oh and BTW ..." kinda things. I guess best prevention is to be sure if we have an OT comment to make that we have the thread in subject commented on also. |
Hey... this is only seen as good in my eyes!
At least you are keeping the thread open for discussion, just moving the location. Not like those crazy CL's on the offical forums! They just up and close the thread if they don't like what you said. |
