POLL: Are you sick of sellers spam in the main forum?
 
Yes or No

Bama 12-18-2010 10:37 PM

I have an old Ford LTD that is missing body parts and doesn't run (the engine is locked up) for sale - any takers? You pay for shipping!!

PornMD 12-18-2010 11:07 PM

Yes...mostly because it's selectivity. Some of us try it after seeing everyone else do it and our thread is moved and we're warned. I don't understand why EVERY thread selling anything in this section isn't moved and warned.

Paul Markham 12-19-2010 05:39 AM

If you cut sellers spam does that mean sponsors spam as well?

Jarmusch 12-19-2010 05:42 AM

Not really, no.

Jack Sparrow 12-19-2010 07:07 AM

Rather have a bunch of losers posting political bull?

I think as long as it is done in moderation by the individuals and you know before clicking the link what to expect it should be allowed. But if someone is abusing the system, say posting new spam every day or constantly bumping their own spam threads then they should be dealt with

TheDoc 12-19-2010 08:43 AM

I don't really notice it much... unless the person does it over and over and over in a very short period of time - which doesn't last long either way.

PixelBucks 12-19-2010 08:47 AM

Hmmm...
 
I see it as business opportunities as opposed to SPAM... I understand there are forum sections more specific for those business opps... but we dont always check those sections do we :( just my 2 cents :2 cents:

u-Bob 12-19-2010 08:52 AM

Depends, long time member posts something in the main forum: no problem..
New, low post count, member spams the main forum: you know he's only out to spam us.

I'm not, normally the sellers who post in the main forum has stuff i'm interested in. Its annoying to have to trawl throught the buy/sell form looking for content/domains when every post there seems to be bumps for people trying to sell links on their free hosted subdomains.

~Ray 12-19-2010 09:25 AM

I post my services in the sell and buy forum and I fly my sig in the other sections.

seems to work best for me.

arock10 12-19-2010 09:26 AM

I'm sick of sellers spam in the buy and sell forum

Supz 12-19-2010 09:32 AM

If this bothers you, you have too much time on your hands.

nikki99 12-19-2010 10:12 AM

CamTraffic 12-19-2010 11:16 AM

better than copy pastes from yahoo news and TMZ... at least it's industry related...

BFT3K 12-19-2010 11:22 AM

Some would consider everyone sigs to be spam. This particular forum is very open to all sorts of topics. Not all topics appeal to everyone, and one person's spam, may be another person's opportunity. If you start censoring too much, the popularity will drop.

In a weird way, some of the topics and postings here are so annoying, that many people come back even more frequently, just for the fights!

Spunky 12-19-2010 11:22 AM

I just scroll past them anyways

Best response yet. :thumbsup :thumbsup

A difference in mindset between a business owner, versus a piss ant. Bravo.

My thoughts exactly. :thumbsup

If your life is so unfulfilled that you need to piss and whine about some message board bullshit, you need to get a hobby, or reevaluate your life.

MaDalton 12-19-2010 11:25 AM

nah, i'd rather have more "do you pee in the shower" threads instead

candyflip 12-19-2010 01:25 PM

I haven't even thought about it since Eric put his foot up barefootsies ass. It was never as bad before he was constantly spamming his shit and it hasn't been as bad since.

Was pretty sure you have some dumb ass response.

I'm also pretty sure that most will agree that your flood of constant shit and ass reaming from eric ruined it for everyone else.
