Have the common sense to allow people freedom of speech. One mans Spam, is another mans treasure.

2 Word story threads are a classic example of spam

so in other words a post is a post we can interpret them as spam or not (just like everything else we percieve I might add) and in the end it comes down to the admins opinion? And if the admin thinks it is spam it is locked woah now how's that for freedom of speech!!, we don't like/agree with what you're saying THREAD LOCKED! As for respecting freedom of speech gotta love that hypocrisy weren't you just telling me to cram my opinion up my ass?

The normal net definition of spam is advertising websites and businesses etc via email, forums, IRC, etc but the definition here is very different... not sure why and I still dont fully understand it but oh well, whatever floats lol

I think a post could be considered as spam when it offers nothing constructive, no opinion, and just adds to someones post count.

Then isn't this thread spam? lol
I think it's thread-relevant too-- yes, if you can't add anything constructive, or are just saying one or two words for no apparent reason, it's spam
But, the 2-word-story was NOT spam, because it was meant for 2-words dammit!! the idea of spam is contextual on where the 'spamming' is done--

Im doin a back flip on the 2 word story! seriously, the 2 word count thing is just a way to get the ole count up. If u can go there, and make sense of a page, as in, it actually does make a story, then, wOOt, your awesome! Im not awesome!

Look, spam is irrelevant posts that are off topic, complete nonsense or a very pointless post. I'll give you and example..'lol' if you wrote that in your post that would be considered as spam. They are unwanted, irrelevant, or inappropriate messages. Also by repeating yourself.

Us admins will tell you guys what is spam and isnt when we see it. Yep V6 is right, it is how us admins see it as spam or an acceptable post.
