This SPAM forum has been deleted. All important or relevant topics from that forum have been transfered to the new one; The Common Room.

Please observe the new topic creation rule in The Common Room (TCR) - All topics must have a purpose. This purpose can be your dog, your day, what colour shoe you have on or anything, however, you cannot create a topic and turn it into a multi-topical spam session.
If you feel you have the need to post something random, post in the now pinned That Random Topic (TRT).

Max and I feel that this should lead to more members having fun in a place where there aren't many posting restrictions.

Enjoy!

heh, someone finally took care of the spam place even though there were good times in there XP

[Isaac702]

yey no more spam section. It was the most active one and i was sort of stuck there for a while

[Unicornmaddy]

ooooo... I've been there NO MORE SPAM! -_-

OK then, just to fill you in... The SPAM forum will be something new soon. Don't loose all hopes

I guess no one knew what I was talking about, but here it is :). I like the new forum. It's like the SPAM forum but with no SPAM -_-

[Echo_djinn]

Oh well, we had some good times. If there is another GS game on the horizen then this place will need a good tune up for all the new members coming in.

[Wiflewood]

Agatio would be pleased. Good call nick! maybe this will encourage some of the older members to return.

[Mars Djinni]

Ooh, dear. TRT's pinned now. XP Well it's a great idea, and everything's a bit more organised now.

[lifeform287]

Ya, I'd say we should post spam constructively. Like I read somewhere else on this forum, (Or that post was edited. Heck I don't know.) it should be posted on topic.

And congrats to TRT for gettin itself pinned. (If it has feelings that is...)

Nice work Nick, It's about time someone took care of the spam forum. I think with this new change the forums will see a lot more constructive posting coming from the members, this is definately a change for the better.

(And in case you're wondering; I lurk on as a guest once every few days and when I saw this I had to post.)

[Nick Presta]

Heh.

Eugine was actually the one who suggested this; hats off to him.

I first threw the idea up in the air 9 months ago.

[Nemphtis]

So basically it's now SPAM with a purpose. OMG the Spam have become organised! We're doomed! Organised Crimez0rz! Okay, that may sound weird so I will calm down with a normal comment... I'm Rick James Biutch.

[Neon]

We don't need a forum just for spam, the whole forum IS spam these days :\

Good idea though -_-.

Yes, but you've left. Since you weren't here when it happened all the credit shall go to Eugine. Think of it like you've written a Will and gave all your stuff to Eugine, except you didn't actually write the Will. -_-

Congrats on a brilliant idea, Eugine!!

Anyways, it's definetly turning out for the better so far.

[Eugine]

I don't think the whole forum is SPAM now, the spamming has been decreased alot and now there's a new rule, the common room doesn't even have SPAM now, the topics there are worth replying to.

Edit: Yep, I suggested this to nick over IM. I showed Agatio topic too while suggesting it also, but hey... Thanks for the credit -_-

[Neon]

Foodfights and other themed spam topics don't appear to be against the rules though. Which is fine. Just as long as we don't have the same problem with people hijaking spam topics and filling them with...er... spam -_-.
All we need now is a bar topic :).

[Someone Else]

Themed Spam Topics are fun. The Water Pistol Fight could be the "Chaotic RP Topic" maybe.

Having Official topics on everything isn't much fun though. =/

[Eugine]

Neon then they will be warned. This brings me to the point the rules need changing.

2. Do not spam. We do not allow (except in spam forum):

the (except the spam forum) should be removed.

Well, yeah too much official topics are quite boring, there could be quite a few topics which are for some SPAM...

Waits for Nick...

If you really want my opinion, what the spam forum has become now is what the off topic forum should be. Next step is to fuse the two together. Fun spam topics are allowed without question, but serious discussion is also welcome.

[Nemphtis]

I suggest Nick alot crap but he always suggests me to "shut the f*ck up" on MSN. -_-

[Neo]

Great job getting rid of the Spam forums... this ones alot better!

[Crimson Barrel Knight]

Well, I did have my doubts about the Spam/Testing forum, but now that there's a new and revised forum, all should go well.

By the way, you do remember that I was the one that created TRT in the first place. I should at least receive some credit for being the creator of a miraculously popular topic.

[Golden Djinn13]

We do have to give you credit, for giving our pathetic minds something to do ^_^

[Nemphtis]

I should be given credit for being the first person to tell you all how freakin' anubis you all are. ^_^ Oh and the fact everyone loves me, you know you do. Even the guys want to make love to me but I keep them away for I am as straight as God, and let's face it, that dude is pretty straight.

[Golden Djinn13]

I had to deal with retarted comments from jack, so im used to this.

[Nemphtis]

The Hell is Jack? I hate hte name Jack, that's the name of that homo from MGS2: Sons of Liberty. Let's face it that guy was the biggest transexual ever to live which leads me to believe that anyone named Jack is also a big-ass transexual with major gender issues.

[Golden Djinn13]

He is some annoying kid that showed up one day, pissed everyone off, and now vanished into thin air.

[Nemphtis]

That's because Pimp Master Anubis is back and as usual he wards off evil retards and powerful idiots who lurk close by waiting for a chance to strike when I am away. >=]

[Golden Djinn13]

Lol, you met jack before you left. ( but he wasn't as annoying back then) He was bringing in his friends ( that were just as retarted)

[Nemphtis]

I need my own superhero costume! Where's that dumbass CrimsonBarrell when I need him?! He should draw me wearing a superhero costume like Batman or something! I shall call myself...

PsychoSpoonKilla

Robbing homes and stealing cars by day, and killing people who rob homes and steal cars by night! Fo' Show!

[Crimson Barrel Knight]

Keep dreaming. It'll never happen.

[Nemphtis]

I'll give you a cookie. ^_^

C'mon, you know you want to draw my sexy body one more time! ;D

[Eugine]

Oh my God. Anubis sometimes your just not funny. I hope you take no offence, but all the topics you posted in... I want to close ^_^

[Nemphtis]

Awww I'm gonna go cry. I thought you loved me...

...and life goes on. ^_^

Who wants to draw my lovely body in a tight superhero outfit? Hey a cookie is well worth it, I'll throw in my mother if you can draw it within a week.

[Eugine]

LOL.

That's offtopic make a topic in The Common Room if you're really desperate.

QFT.

Back on topic, it seems now that people are coming back per say; even that idiot Forte. I knew he'd come crawling back. ^_^

[Neon]

I think the new spam forum is what the off-topic forum should be. Does anyone like the idea of merging the two? I really see no point in having two forums for general discussion, just one is less strict than the other :P.

[Nemphtis]

No. Keep it how it is now. Quit Forking around with the layout before I take my belt off and smack you all over this topic.

[Izar]

That was kinda spammy. Quit spamming.

Merging would be pointless. The Common Room is still kinda the spam forum, it's just basically extra thoughts. Just no spam. :P

[Elliott]

It's very different, in a good way. Now there will be no topics that start on one thing, and end up changing subject tons of times so that they just become an outlet for twats to post their random unfunny crap in.

[Crimson Barrel Knight]

I concur that it was getting rather pointless for such topics to be treated that way, but, what could they do; they were bored. :P

[Sea of Time]

Best decision ever. This makes things seem more professional on the forums while still keeping the insane randomness that comes with the spam forum. Kudos to you admin for making a great solution to a growing problem.

[Somia]

Hm..I think this is a good idea, because most post are concentraded on teh Spam forum before and people don't really spend much time at teh other forums.
