sometimes ppl got lazy and not searching for a topic before they start the same thread, it&#39;s not spam

spam is usually something that you promote, like a product or a server or a website.

that&#39;s why there is no links allowed in the threads or you can&#39;t promote goods or services in the forum, if they are free, like some1 was just asking for free email, then you can post the links.

[[B][O][T]]

Multi-posting is one of the worst forms of spam, You don&#39;t have to post like 40 post in a row in this (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=62851&st=705&hl=) thread.

This is pure spam, and it&#39;s not allowed:

Shut up spammer :P

BOT i think y ment Excessive Multi-Posting there buddy ;) (EMP) has the same meaning as the term "spam"
usually carries, but it is more accurate and self-explanatory. EMP means,
essentially, "too many separate copies of a substantively identical
article."

"Substantively identical" means that the material in each article is
sufficiently similar to construe the same message. The signature is
included in the determination. These are examples of substantively
identical articles:

- byte-for-byte identical messages
- otherwise identical postings minimally customized for
each group it appears in.
- advertising the same service.
- articles that consist solely of the same signature
- articles which consist of inclusions of other user&#39;s
postings, but are otherwise identical.

well kno wi know what EMP is and this i skinda diffrent from spaming so i guess im a EMP whore

[[B][O][T]]

well get rid of the f*cking post counts then

This isnt about post count though, it&#39;s about multi-posting.


that way the mods cant bithc about ppl multi posting

Do We mods bitch about multi-posting?

If 40 post or so in a row is not spam, then VB should remove that rule.

[silent VI]

[[B][O][T]]

Just put it all in one post&#33;&#33;&#33; Its easier on everyones eyes and keeps me from having to change the page so damn much. <_< *mutters angrily in Homer Simpson voice* oh i hate changing pages

[Adster]

ok what if I do 40 pages of verfieds?? whats the difference??? its relevent to the topic which was what was happening if smiley faces or off topic hijacking was the case then I would consider it spam

[silent VI]

common sence in what? i mean i was boared i had nothin do do i found a topic of intrest and i contributed my opinions according to the topics rules so i still dont belive i was spaming in any way at all and i didnt get to finish an dnow the topic is closed :(


btw i was gonna stop after i got toZ again :lol: :lol: way to lazy for anouther 40 posts

[silent VI]

bu ti didn tdo that ;) nethin glik ethat i just was postin my opinions is tha really considered wrong :o

[Adster]

apearenlty yes for some reason. we cnat even have any fun on here anymore or even post what is relevent to the actual thread which is what you were doing

The exuse is multi posting but what if I and DrunkeNStylE
were in that triva thread replying to each other then it wouldnt be multi posting would it?? so whats the difference??? it wouldn&#39;t haev even been thought of I myself have done album reviews and covers with track lists for 40 pages on in musicworld becaeu its relevent to the thread if it pisses off the mods so much then dont lock the topic move it too the lounge becasue it seem sto be that posts are all that matters thease days

Maybe VB should add the following code to /sources/lib => post_reply_post.php

AFTER:

// Lets load the topic from the database before we do anything else.



// Flood Control No Reply To Own Replies Start
&#036;DB-&#62;query&#40;&#34;SELECT last_poster_id FROM ibf_topics WHERE tid=&#39;&#34;.&#036;this-&#62;topic&#91;&#39;tid&#39;&#93;.&#34;&#39;&#34;&#41;;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&#036;this-&#62;topic = &#036;DB-&#62;fetch_row&#40;&#41;;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&#036;dienow = &#036;class-&#62;forum&#91;&#39;last_poster_id&#39;&#93;;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&#036;checkmemberid = &#036;ibforums-&#62;member&#91;&#39;id&#39;&#93;;
&nbsp;if &#40;&#036;checkmemberid == &#036;dienow&#41;
&nbsp;{
&nbsp; &nbsp;&#036;std-&#62;Error&#40; array&#40; LEVEL =&#62; 1, MSG =&#62; &#39;reply_own_reply&#39;&#41; &#41;;
&nbsp;
&nbsp;} else {
}
// Flood Control No Reply To Own Replies End


Then add into lang/en => lang_error.php the following line:

AFTER: &#036;lang = array (



&#39;reply_own_reply&#39; =&#62; &#34;Sorry, you are not allowed to reply right now. Please wait until another member posts a reply or edit your old reply to add more content to your post.&#34;,


That would disallow to post a reply to a members own reply - meaning a member has to wait until another member posts before he can post again :)

Works with IB 1.2 - dirty coded by Darker :P

[silent VI]

yeah i can post on teh topic again woo hoo ill finish to Z now :P

[silent VI]

:lol: Great idea darker

[james_bond_rulez]

now there is a dude who fell in love with his own voice

and I thought gays are weird...

go figure :blink:

[silent VI]

:P yup i love myself

[Adster]

Darker that is a genius idea and then ppl would use the edit button more too great idea should be done to stop the bitching :)

[Somebody1234]

Darker&#39;s idea is great. We should try that here on this board. http://www.mcbriens.net/liam/img/smilies/thmbup.gif

It&#39;s obvious to me that DrunkeNStylE is only here for the post count.


@DrunkeNStylE, read this:

Sorry, you are not allowed to reply right now. Please wait until another member posts a reply or edit your old reply to add more content to your post.

There is an [edit] button to the far right of each of your posts.

[Gre1]

Darker that is a good Idea. Would that stop double post errors too.

:P Yeah.....we all know who needs to use the Edit Button more.

And yes..I think waiting until another member posts a reply or edit your old reply to add more content to your post is a great idea. :)
