    Spamming Threads

    in Forum Updates and Suggestions

    Posted

    So as the staff may know, and others that now about LOTPW, it was locked for being a spam thread, BUT recently they have made a funny pictures thread. Which to assume its going to be spam, and in the rules of what they enforced on LOTPW:

    "There's a reason we created this forum with a strict "no spamming" rule. There's a reason a "spam forum" has always been on our suggestion black list. There's a reason we don't allow a "random images" thread in Off-Topic. There's a reason why we never wanted to implement a shoutbox. These things all boil down to spam. Tip.It is not the place for spam and it is not something we want in our community. If you want to have random conversations with friends, spam quotes, and share random GIFs, there are other places to do that (Skype chats, IRC channels, your own forum, etc.)."

     

    Yes we have been out of line multiple times and we have been given a second chance, I am just doing this for another chance. People that posted regularly have been known to piss off certain staff members and say atrocious things to and behind their backs, but that's their natural self. They have pushed it far and some of them have seen the consequences to what they did. And now with over 9,000 pages, I, as long with other would not like to lose LOTPW. Also quoted :

     

    "We have tried to be very very lenient with the forum/thread here as it is meant to be fun! I would dare say, it's not fun for some of the regular visitors anymore. We were considering locking the thread but the old timers/regular of the thread worked really hard to get this thread to the point it is at, and we want to respect the effort."

     

    I know many of the staff members have had to cut back on wanting the thread locked multiple times, but there has been staffed that enjoyed the thread, and would go there to enlighten their day.

     

    So as to this, my friends and I would please like to hear more on this matter, and they also could provide with some material to aid me. Also I am taking this seriously and don't want reasons to be dumb and stupid, as I started out in the funny pictures thread.
