Don’t post in threads that are obvious spam or meant to troll or you may suffer the same fate as the topic creator.
I’m posting this thread because I keep asking you not to bump them, but you do. We don’t want to ban anyone, but some of you are making the forums worse than they already are. You keep these threads at the top and you add more garbage here than the original spammer. Admins and mods have been discussing the condition of OT and agree that some cleaning up needs to take place if possible.
So if we see a spam thread, action may be taken against everyone who posts in the thread. You guys are spamming just as much and it needs to stop.
Examples of what we commonly see:
▪ ‘This is spam!’
▪ ‘hes a troll’
▪ ‘cool story bro’
▪ ‘in before the lock’
▪ ‘reported/flagged’
Please, familiarize yourself with the Report thread and the list of what to report flagging system . We’ve not been totally strict on these rules and have hope to just leave them as ‘guidelines’, but obviously there are enough people who abuse their freedom to justify more action and stronger notices.
Unless you want to share in the fate of the topic creator or others who bump the thread, don’t go into his thread or join in his discussion. If you do, you bear full responsibility for what follows and forfeit your right to complain. It’s your choice to click the reply button and place your name in the thread, ready to be clicked, so please make it more wisely.
Edit: These are actually fairly mild compared to whats being happening lately (’10)
