Spesh when its just threads full of them, there pointless, stupid and annoying. Even the spam forum has limits...

This was only discussed in full a few weeks ago.

The images actually break the forum rules. This rule states they dont want simple answers, adding just images is actually getting around the charcater limit thus pointless.

C2. Don't post short or meaningless messages - We don't want replies like "i dono" or "why" or "yeah". We have set the forum so that any message must contain at least 9 characters, do not try to get around this by adding meaningless characters.

Well its quite normal for people to post short messages in Spam and has always been okay. As I said this was discussed a few weeks ago and the spam rules clarified. The spam section is a place where you post pointless messages. Check the description.
Use this forum for your pointless posts and threads that dont have a real purpose.
Post counts do not increase

Also in that case these replies break the rules as they are less than 9 charactors

I dont think my post was of any use, i mean posting just images in a thread on stop is annoying and does spam it up all the time, though i guess addign the user to ignore, and it doesnt always happen does it?

Just a hyper over it i guess.

But that's just it?
If you just ban them, it'll stop. I don't much care for the spam forum, I just get abuse, but I still wouldn't do that. It's just stupid and immature. A warning isn't going to stop them... :rolleyes:

You can pointless post in the spam section as much as you like. Aslong as you don't make say 10 threads with something like 'Orly' 'kk' 'yarly' Which is just annoying!

As some threads were "o rly" owls ect.

I dont visit spam forum often so im not exaclty mega bothered, just annoying sometimes.
