How can I avoid putting up "spam" if nobody can be assed explaining what makes my threads different from others? For instance, how is my "cash money" thread ANY fucking different from the threads about Blitzer's "so black" comment, or Bennett's spiel, or Durbin, etc.?

With all due respect, please explain the difference or leave me alone.

You should know better about why your thread was considered spam. It involved no discussion, plain and simple. You've been warned unofficially repeatedly, yet you don't listen. Perhaps you should take this as a strong suggestion to stop spamming.

Threads that involve relevant discussion are usually fine in General. Again, you should know better. Read The One-Stop Rules Shop?

There has been discussion in almost all of my threads; it just hasn't been serious. By the way, you act as though I know what you're thinking and what your perspective is.

Guess what?

I'M
NOT
YOU

And to what do threads need to be relevant, anyway?

Spam/SPAM: Off-topic, irrelevant and multi-posts that clog the server. This includes posting lots of smilies which is known as Smilie Spam. Also akin to spamming is Post-whoring which is when a player posts anything just to increase the postcount. Spamming to the point where you get deleted is known as Klamathing. Spamming in the forums should be reported through the Moderation forum, and In-game, through the Getting Help Page.

Your thread was simply a statement of your opinion, and spam followed it, with most of the posts made. No sort of discussion developed about it, just random posts. That's when it truly becomes spam. But for a first post, if you want a discussion, you're going to need to post more than one line.

Ok, now I'm confused? is this about the cash money thread or the other threads that Osutoria-Hangarii started that was locked for being spammy?

and Osutoria-Hangarii, for that Cash thread, other threads that had the same one smilie/sentence post are also locked. IMHO if you gave some background into the thread topic or even a link with a viable opinion attached, then it wouldn't be viewed as spam.

As for your Teenagers with Attitude, thread, I could see it making it further if you had the posters also suggesting a theme and color for their... morphers... then again that might've been locked also.. :p

Originally, it is about the cash money thread, but past occurances have been taken into account, which gives Osutoria-Hangarii a past history of spam.
