Dino-Spam Alert

[Jamski]

I just wanted to point out that some posters think the Dino forum is a good (ie. unmoderated) place to boost post count with massive spamming.

Someone please fix or what ?

[cynical]And everyone add your +1's below please[/cynical]

BTW, I'm referring to Reinhard-Baer, who posted in every Dino's forum in about 30 seconds today. Although all these threads are dead. I check these things on "New Posts"

I just looked and its quite a spam fest

[Reinhard-Baer]

I strongly reject any accusations of spamming. I posted in this thread because I like Dinos and hoped the game would be released it did not, sorry. You can check each post, they are not spam.
Spam are posts with signs or something useless in it, this is not the case. Above all who told you they are dead, there are still people in it and discuss. Furthermore if people see there are still posts then they will come back and rejuvenate the thread.

But I know you well, you attacked me ruthlessly in the other thread about the US. I know you don't like me or perhaps just my opinions therefore you try to discredit me.
Furthermore I'm strongly against anything called newbiebashing. I enjoy the discussions about the different games in this forum and I will not let the fun being hampered by people like you.
Thank you.

Btw is it forbidden to rejuvenate older threads for the sake of asking opinions?
Before you attack me I would advise you to look into the threads and see what I wrote. This is something we call fairness.

Looked like spam to me. Resurrecting a group of threads months and months old with bland vanilla comments is spam. I could see you wanting to try to generate some more interest. Next time, try with better content.

Yes this was my intention. I'm glad the officials understand what I wanted to do. Next time I will do it better.

Better spam?

usually the pm system works really well in these matters, but some people are just obsessed with those +1's

[Reinhard-Baer]

Hmm some say people accusing others of doing something wrong might only want to cover their own wrong doings *Looks at the person who feel the necessity to open a new thread about this*

i didn't say he did anything wrong, I'm saying there is a better way to report spam. What did war of art do?


EDIT: I went and looked at the Dino forum, that was 8 posts of pure

[Alex]

I thought the Dino forum was closed...

[Dauphin]

As far as spam goes its nothing compared to other forums and posters.


Fora that are not directly accesible from the main forum page (except via the dropdown box) are always going to be hidden away from mods and more prone to spam I would think.

[badams52]

I hardly call 8 new posts in dead forums a foray into the art of +1. Now if War of Art was merely asking the mods to close the forums...but then he wouldn't get the +2 and I wouldn't get a chance to respond.

Like BC was saying, I've seen (name withheld to protect the guilty) post 250+ across multiple forums with lots of smileys and little content in 2-3 days then not posting again in those forums once the plateau of 500 was reached.

Why swat a fly when you can kill the chicken to show the monkeys.

Now I've got some ing to do in the Dino threads...
