Is PC spammy?

PC spammy? Don't make me laugh.

*laughs anyways*

For the sheer size of the forum, with like 2,000 posts a day (It think that's what Kwesi said) it's a miracle that this forum isn't full of SPAM. Especially considering that in general, most of the members are younger which in most places causes more SPAM. (No offence to the younger members of course)

I'm honesty quite surprised by the sheer amount of non-SPAM posts here. It's just... amazing... to see such a big forum be so SPAM-less.

o.o;
 
i wouldent really say that this place has a lot of spam. Allthough if you look at things like the Crush topic and the Daily Chit Chat, they get off topic ALOT it will happen 4 or 5 times a day. Most of it though is people just going into harmelss Roleplaying but then again there is a section for that...But what do I know? I dont even really exist.
 
From my point of view, PC is moderatly spammy. Of course, what I call SPAM is really strict. Anything under 1 or 2 average sentances and anything that makes no point or the bulk of the post is off topic, I call SPAM. That is why I don't have a high post count because I follow my rules, not someone else's. But now I have less strict guidelines of what I call SPAM lately.

Well you can't count the DCC, I mean that thread has no topic so no one can get off topic.
 
Well I guess that is true, but what about the crush thread...now you cant tell me that dosent go off topic like it's the end of the world

Now the crush thread is like a second DCC around PC. XD
So yea you are right about Scotty's thread.
 
Not at all, but sometimes when people break the 25 char limit like "*kills 25 char limit*" or adding dots to posts. But the point is, we are getting only a bit stricter to get rid of those problems. Breaking the 25 char limit is not a very good thing because you are not trying to force yourself to post longer posts. ^_^

Ya! I'm right about something....too bad it's kinda obvious though...hey this could be called spam?
 
I knew a lot of ppl would post in this....

Whenevery you talk about something like a lot of ppl post. I even got some of the most popular members here!

I am really proud of PC actually. It is very well oiled, and any squeaks are instantly gone.... <--Metaphorically speaking of course.

I think sometimes I'm on the verge of becoming a spammer....I need to stop being spammy @_@
 
no point of longer post if the long post doesn't make sense... if a member succeeds in making some sense with a post less than 25 character (hard but not impossible), then I say that it's fine... o.o;

not all the threads have to be strict you know... leave a few out like the crush thread for people to relax a bit. Isn't that why people come on to PC, to have a place to chat with ease and comfortability? Rules should be kept to a minimum, and the amount of rules that we have is pretty good imho.
 
I don't think it's spammy, but Cas or whatever her name is at Pikasurf kicked me off the forums there because I made a fairly short post. In her PM she/he said: "You don't deserve to be here! You are a spammer! Go to pokecommunity, there's a lot of spammers there!"

And thus, I joined PC, which in my opinion, is perfect! Not spammy whatsoever.
 
Pikasurf is pretty strict, so we should all be grateful that PC doesn't put up oh so strict rules. Sure, its more controlled there, but its more fun here. ^_^

Cas kicked you out? Darn, that sucks. ><; She just errr, has a huge grudge against PC, I guess. X_x;; I find this place nice, its not so restricted, which its something I can't stand in forums. What's the point of a forum if all you're gonna do is be bossed around? @_@

*dies*
 
I've never met Cas...

I really don't go to many other forums except my own and my friends, so I don't know how truly bad forums can get.
 
lol...Who here hasn't been banned from Pikasurf before? Back when I first joined pikasurf, Cas asked if I could mod cuz she had someone tell her something good about me. She asked my moderating credentials (which by itself is wierd), and when I told her that I mod here. she said she can only offer me the Spam Forum there. I took that as a stinging insult towards PC and refused. I later got banned for something I didn't even do. O.o
 
lol... guess that Cas still hates PC for what happened so long ago ^_^;

PC may not be SPAMmy, but still... like what I said a lot of times here already: can always work on some quality post.
 
What happened 'so long ago'?

Anyway, Pikasurf would be really cool if it wasn't so strict...Yeeshkabobs! :dead:
(Yes, I made up the word yeeshkabobs...At least I think so XD)

"so long ago" is like Dec. 2002-Jan. 2003

Cas was the mod of PC's art forum, and she herself had a request thread that breached well over 60 pages (it was the biggest thread in PC to date). One day she got really mad at all the requests and decided to delete the entire thread, and then flame the PC mods and admins when they told her that what she did was wrong. She was eventually banned for flaming members and disrespecting forum staff.

Of course, I was a newbie when all this happened and I had no social roots in PC yet, so my view of the story may be off by a little...
 
no one even those who are present can get the right image of that... unless someone can get into Cas's account provided that she didn't delete PMs. There's 2 completely different story to the same story, so it's hard to judge... it's one of the more terrifying and mysterious things in PC history.
