...nor is it Dr. Phil from what I remember.

Not to mention the amount of Nanatsu no Tsuki and RhynoD spam that seems to exist there.

1. Just because people don't talk about what you want to talk about here on NSG does not make it spam. It's good if you allow people to speak without your permission, as you aren't supreme ruler of NSG.

(Edit: I thought this was in general! *Slaps self*)

No, but Max Berry is, and his moderators have ruled time and again in the past that NSG is not a blog, as the thread started out, nor a place for pointless spam, as it has become.

While it may have turned into a pointless spamfest, I don't think the OP was a blog. I think he just had to set up the questions (so other posters could get a sense of why he was asking the questions), hence the background in the first 3 paragraphs.

Perhaps. Obviously I didn't rule on the matter, I just brought it up. Unfortunately whether I'm right or not no longer seems to matter given the spam, but lets just let the mods decide.

Just wondering: why? The thread is riddled with spam, even if you don't believe it was questionable from the get-go.

I can't speak to exactly why Siro let it stay, but I can say that I would have let it stay because it did ask a legitimate discussion question.

Good enough for me :)
