Minimum character count

I was joking mu friend.

Anyway, /i have noticed spam just increased with a stupid thread, called, why do they die? That should be in spam city, alot of people in spam city are RP'ers. Oh and tell me what you think guys, ok a person comes to a RP and posts OOC, can I join, one person says no to ask this person, well the smart thing to do is PM them, but instead that person posts again. Then again keep bugging. Then I gpot tired of it and said stop that your not in if you want in bad enough you would PM the starter of the RP. Yet he doesn't listen and posts what his thoughts on the stories are. This person came back to the site, and posted he was a top poster, well I was really mad by this, and came to conclusion then he must be spamming, but a person can't be to sure. So I checked this posts, and sure enough every post he has made is spam, but a few. So I PM'ed another person, this person knows who he or she is, and if wishes to be revealed can, and he said to report him. Well I decided to be nice and PM him, today I got a reply in which he was cursing and is all, "all you are is another chick with a period". I'm am so pissed off right now, I checked his posts again, and sure enough they're still spam, what do you guys think. If you guys want to know who it is to check posts just PM me so I don't disgrace the guy.

 

i was on this adventchildren website and the spam didnt count i think sombody in this forum should do that it wouls take care of spamming counting as posts

 

Maybe be a VBmod. Any post below 75 Characters does not add to your post count?

 

i like your idea Pulse it would make everybodys post count slowly go up but i think a few people may not like that idea.

 

Well I think that's fine at least 50. I mean me in RP's I can sometimes post 4 paragraphs. Plus the true spammers out there will start doing the 5 billion periods and stuff. That way we can attack them, or whatever.

 

It needs to be relatively high as people in the RP don't seem to want to follow the rules. As soon as the rules are followed it can be removed without telling anyone to see the outcome.

 

I think you need this mod if you want to try it, though I am unsure as The mod lacks a in depth description.

Cough*Cough*YourrightCoughcough* Dang I have a bad cough. XD

Anyway yeah that's a great idea, but it won't be everybody we're members and their are other members mad about spam so I'm sure we can get that. So I second your idea.

 

I say that all habitual spammers be banned for a few days

 

As we have seen, once they get banned they create a new account and return...

 

Maybe, but he (I guess we're talking about the same person..) said he will do better. Let's see and give him another chance. If he really regrets it, he will do it better.

 

If the rules are changed for one person they should be changed for all...

 

Which their not, more than likely Riaden, sao, and/ or TD will see and then get permantely banned. It's just a matter of time. He did say he try, but I don't know. Anyway I came with a plan, if we could get a new annoucment up on this and teach everyone what spam is that way they know(in other words you spam from this point on your banned). We can create a new rule, we can call it 'Spam=Bann'.

 

Temperary bans would really p**s people off,then they could come back and spam more.While as a permanent one would kill off all our members.If people just stopped the spam...at the same time however,we don't want to issue empty threats.

 

Well it should teach them a lesson the first time.(first bann)

Actually I like your idea, it's great. ^

 

I'm all for the maximum amount of post counts per day.

But as another solution, we could just make it so known spammers post counts stay as they are permanently.

And also, I read you guys saying about spelling. I spell right. If I don't, that's probably because I don't know how to spell that word.
