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.

Ok Define irrelevent? Is a gay or lesbain poll irrelevant? irrelevant to what this is the GENERAL forum for anything and everything so nothing is Irrelevant exept people posting to get more posts or flaming or no message at all just random letters my thread does not fall under this catagory

Is what I wrote in the general board under anything and everything if it is anything and everything than nothing short of random letters and post whoring or flaming or flame baiting should be deleted as spam. thanks

Quoting the ruleset doesn't count. The fact that we don't define spam down to the smallest detail doesn't mean your posts weren't spam.

Appeal to popularity doesn't count. Visit the Jolt Spam forum (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=29) if you want to see massive responses to pointless drivel.

Redefining spam to suit your purposes doesn't count. We have established standards for acceptable posts. Yours didn't meet them.

Interpreting the General description doesn't count. We've been policing these forums for more than three years using the same descriptions. This is a private site. If you don't like our interpretations, there's a great big ol' Internet out there for you. Have at it.

Your threads were spam. They stay deleted. Continue to post such, and your nation will join them in oblivion. Clear enough for you?
