Nope. Threads that get moved to spam have been effectively consigned to the trash heap. Or closed/locked/deated.

It's a shame, cuz I'm a good spammer. But I hate the way the spam forum looks and feels.

To some extent yes i do.

If they were homosexual i'm sure you could call them Kiwifruit...

But yeah Kiwis are Kiwis.

Sometimes. It depends on if I like the thread in question.

Not usually. But the legendary ones, such as Choose Wisely, How Do You Do It?, Post of Death, and The "What Not To Do" Thread, are worth it.

Not many threads can handle the post-Spam existence though. Those can, and have gotten a new life in Spam. Some of the non-NSG spammers are quite nice too you know.

Anyhow, Spam isn't the worst place for a good thread to go. Some threads are kept undead there, and they're still fun :) The worst place a thread can be sent however, is Chat. That is a guaranteed coup de grâce to any thread. Chat is certain death. Chat is oblivion. Chat is... cold... and lonely... And there are only strange posters there... *Shivers*
I'll say nothing more about that scary place...

Here's the Spam forum. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=29)

I'm not gonna link you to Chat. It's for your own good, as it is an unspeakable place. I couldn't do something that evil to a poster who's still overwhelmed by General ;)

Oh, I chose Kiwi because I would not follow a THREAD to spam, but I would follow a person who was a Kiwi there.

Although I personally eat lemons as well... and limes.

I've occassionally clicked the link to a thread, and then left it for a while, and then finally decided to reply to it, by which time it has been moved to Spam. But as I had no way of even knowing whether it was spammed or nay, I can hardly be blamed.

Also, lemons are teh roxx0rz.

As long as I was still not through mocking a poster in that thread, I will follow it over.

It depends on the thread. If it's good enough I'd probably follow it to hell and back. Not the RP forums though.

i have once in a while, not usualy realizing or noticing that it had until i look up and find that i had landed there. it's just a matter of it the title of the thread or something going on in it looks interesting to me or i feel strongly that it needs the input of my commentary. otherwise, no, in the sense of doing so deliberately or because it had. just one or two threads, that were sufficiently interesting reguardless. and of course i would/will do so again under similar circumstances.

Yes, and yes, but thats not the worst of it by any stretch of the imagination.

Thats because, all spam all the time is pointless. Its so much more fun to spam something that may have had value before we showed up.

Sometimes I follow a thread to spam. The "what not to do" thread is fantastic and will remain fantastic. I post things on the Uber Thread when I feel like saying something unrelated to anything and don't want to start my own thread.

I also lurk in the spam forum when general doesn't have anything that interests me.

Chat is a miserable place. I got one of my threads sent there. I have to tell you I was heartbroken. As if I wasn't even worthy of being sent to Spam... :(

Yes, it does.

BAsically what Gravlen said about Chat is how the Spam Forum should be treated, it's UN-NS!
