Stupid Spam Rules

[Slyfox696]

To generate more discussion.

Hart could work a crowd far better than Benoit ever could as it seemed like Benoit was a machine instead of a person. Malenko had a much better arsenal of moves to chose from than Benoit and could win a match in more than just two ways.

That's irrelevant elaborting?

Yes. Because all you just said is "Also, I think Bret and Malenko also surpassed him in ring abilities."

Irrelevant.

 

[klunderbunker]

No, detailed, which is better.

 

[Slyfox696]

No, detailed, which is better.

In YOUR mind. But, we're not talking about "better", we're talking about relevant.

By your own example, you admit it was relevant, and thus, not spam.

 

[Sparky]

No, detailed, which is better.

it might look better if it was for a term paper or something, but for a Forum that looked good enough. He didnt just ramble on and on, bout the same things.

 

[klunderbunker]

No, I said it was relevant and not enough. Get your facts straight.

Defending your position is rambling?

To be spam, it must be irrelevant. You admit it wasn't irrelevant, and by extension, not spam.

I have my facts straight.

 

[Slyfox696]

Defending your position is rambling?

Not at all. But why bother with 10 words when you can say it in 3? That's silly.

So, when is the LD and Spam Zone going to be changed to the LD and Newz Zone?

Sly isn't saying spam should be allowed he's saying that the rules should be relaxed, as long as someones post is on topic and they make a point it shouldn't be considered spam

Hardly.

Topic: who should win the Raw Elimination Chamber?

Answer: Rey.

That's relevant, so therefore not spam?

 

[Sparky]

You read half of the Long replies here, you will see them repeat the same thing in 4 different ways, kind of like a lawyer.

The difference between that and the one we're discussing is the one that we're discussing also gave his reason why. While he may have shortened his answer and not wrote a journal like you seem to want him to, it doesn't change the fact that he gave a position and supported it.


But, personally, I have no problem with that answer either. But, I know WZ will nevver go that relaxed, but there's no reason to abolish posts like the one I used as an example above, just because he didn't say the same exact thing with three times as many words.

 

[klunderbunker]

I don't want him to write a journal. I want him to say why he thinks something. Why were Hart and Malenko better in the ring? Is that too much to ask for?

 

[Slyfox696]

Why the fuck should he have to? The topic is "Should Benoit be in the Hall of Fame", not "Why is Benoit a worse wrestler than Hart or Malenko".

Why should he have to, when he's already given his point and supported it? It's silly.

I understand where he's coming from. I just think it would be cool to have a rumors/newz section, and I think the LD and Spam Zone would be the perfect place for it.

 

[klunderbunker]

Isn't that called the main page though?

Point out things that Benoit could have done better to reach the level of a Hall of Famer perhaps? Defend his position on why Benoit isn't good enouhg?

Fair enough. Is it against the rules to post rumors/newz that we credit to other sites? If so, then never mind and my apologies for inquiring. Obsidiana always posts copied and pasted lucha libre results, so I thought why not have more credited sources of information?

 

[justinsayne]

TBH this is how I used to post just to avoid infractions, I would literally sit in front of my computer and repeat the same thing several time over just so my post look non-spammy

You can post news anywhere you want, and we do ask that you give a source, so it can be validated, and not just you making it up. As far as Obsidiana posting results, those can be easily verified, and it's good information. Any time someone wants to post good information consistently on their own, then it's a good thing.

I used to do it as well. but now, to me as long as I fill up the post quick reply box, it isn't spam.

It made me laugh, when the poster formerly known as Y2Jane did that, as i thought I was the only one.

"John Cena sucks. He knows four moves." is relevant and makes a point. But, it's still spam. It doesn't cause any discussion or debate, other than for a group of fourth graders.

"Nuh-uh. Cena is awesome."

"The FU rulz!"

"No. Cena's gay."

"No he's not. He was banging Mickie."

"I'd bang Mickie."

"I farted."

 

[Sparky]

this still going on?

You're speaking in hypotheticals, and I'm discussing the real.

Don't come back until you have a real.

 

[klunderbunker]

That could happen. I'd hope we'd get rid of it before it happened, but it could.
