Reminder: Spamming to 10 posts

Diesel · #1 07-12-2009, 11:07 PM

Yes, you need 10 posts to unlock some features of d3scene.

No, you should not spam to get 10 posts.

Many people spam towards 10 posts and then post a virus, so obviously we will take notice if you start spamming. If you spam and post a virus, you will obviously be banned. If you spam then post a server ad or something, all your posts will be deleted (including server ad) and you will receive 5 infraction points.

The reason for this 10 post rule is to keep our forums free of spam, not add to it. Just because you want to advertise your server doesn't mean you can post "nice hack" 10 times to do so.

Make your posts quality or don't make them at all.

For concerns, see rules 1, 2, and 3.

With love,
Diesel

So lets me se if I got this right... we cant spam anymore? o.o

The idea is:

Spamming to 10 posts will be a waste of your time... Whatever you are trying to post as your 11th post will also get deleted and you will be infracted. Therefore you might as well put the little extra effort into making your first 10 posts quality, and then who knows? your server ad or whatever you wanted to post, may look a little more legit, because you may have helped some people along the way to posting it.

Also made an announcement.

Perhaps it's hard for you, but you'll make it

Just spam outside of D3 xD

Personally I dislike this rule because we WILL get spammed with it.
We can make 1000 rules like " Don't spam " but people will do it.
I think there is no way to reduce the spam.. And a 10Post rule won't change anything in my opninion, but there is a biiiiig chance that I'm not right.. and I hope so..

//EDIT: Diesel postet before me.So here's my answer:

Okay. This point of view I haven't thought of. You are totally right.
I'll take back everything I said

My point exactly!

Also, I'm getting tired of deleting some peoples posts, this is a lot of work for me if they are going to keep posting while I delete.

So to stop them I am now giving out, for a limited time only, free ban time that lasts anywhere from 2-7days! If you want your own special usergroup, and a nice little message when you try and access the forums, now is your chance! Just spam needlessly and I will find you. But wait, there's more! Is that few days not enough for you? Continue spamming when you return, and I will turn the number of days you were banned into months! (IE, 3 day ban = new 3 month ban).
