    Recently IKE closed my one of topics, cause he thought it is SPAM.

    I only wanted to have some nice thoughts on my Offline Board from everyone in oreder not to feel so lonely as I am not online whole the time.

    Please, try to understand that. I think some ppl may not really understand what SPAM is. It is advertisements and my posts only is asking ppl in here leaving some nice thoughts on my pc

    Still consider it as spam.

    you are asking people to visit your webpage/forum

    Somebody also likes to take the Pi55, particularly with their variable use of the English language.

    Is this good meant or bad? I don't charge IKE, as everyone defines SPAMS other.

    For me SPAM are commercial advertisements and I don't love it.

    internet.news , I agree. You and a lot of faithful members here (long timers too) have websites and different places to be proud of and you'd like to share it. That's what the internet is.

    If you want to know what spam is, get a yahoo e-mail account and wait a month. You KNOW what spam is.

    But once in a while, to say "hey, I got something good here, check it out". Is fine with me.

    To post a something that is exploiting the forum buy trying to sell something or crash the server is spam. And to do it over and over is spam.

    This "I made it to 1,000!" is getting old, to me, that is spammish, even though it is a different member announcing it each time. To post a "penguin" topic 3 or more times is spam.

    internet.news , I'll visit your forum. This place is not like it was a year ago. It is getting old. Time to move on in 2004.

    If I were in law school, I'd say the rules didn't apply to posting your friend's website, but that's just my opinion.

    Just because it is a "rule", doesn't mean it has to be enforced every time. There's human factor in deciding when to enforce a rule, that's a given. Again, that's my opiion.

    When a place becomes too strict, it becomes more undesireable, and the riff-raff usually follows.

    It is up to the Mods (or Gods) how they want to run this place. And there is a place for everyone. And here isn't the only one.
