A note on Spam
« on: February 28, 2003, 05:57:27 pm »
Spam is flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it (which if you look into a thread on a forum, you are choosing to view it). Most spam is commercial advertising, often for dubious products, get-rich-quick schemes, or quasi-legal services. Spam costs the sender very little to send -- most of the costs are paid for by the recipient or the carriers rather than by the sender.

For more information go to the Net Abuse FAQ.

I dont usually find any kind of forum psts annoying...but really, shut up dirk. Everything you have posted is completely useless and/or no one cares about what you post. We all know what spam is, and we dont need you giving us a descriptive definition! So do us all a favor and post normally or get off the boards...

So here is my advice whether you want it or not. If your going to spam, at least make it funny. If spam isnt funny or interesting its just annoying. And dont make stupid posts just because your bored. Because obviously, you must have been really bored to post this stuff.

*end rant*

Actually Aelya is on the money, almost:

My posts are a result of several things:

1. Boredom
2. I\'ve had a bad couple days and am bringing it out on the board, I apologize
3. Link pissed me off
4. People didnt take my first posts seriously, they instead were like \"not another newb!\", It disrespected me.
5. No body thought the No Pants Day was funny ( I guess you have to see it for it to be...)

1.) Your being a prick, not even a funny/smartass prick.
2.) Shut up while your ahead, or not too far behind.
3.) Stop using excuses
4.) Last time I had a bad day and took it out on PlaneShift, it got me banned.
5.) No pants day is a joke not even I would laugh at.
6.) I really haven\'t read your posts, but this seemed like the stupid thing cyo would do.

My posts are a result of several things:

1. IGNORANCE
2. More excuses, sorry if you have a crappy life, we dont care
3. You piss off Link
4. It disrespected you because you should have read up on the site, you prick,  we called you another newbie because you fit the description PERFECTALLY.
5. No, its just another stupid childish idea, even if you are \"20\"
