No but I would hope you realise that different sections are intended for different things, posts actually go towards your count in the BB section, they don't here because a lot of what is posted is essentially spam, this is a light-hearted off-topic crap.

Would you go around the BB section just posting lolcats for example?

Even if you lit it up he would still barely register it and glumly shuffle off to bed, though.

Makes me wonder then why people get infracted for spamming then - seeing as it's one of the rules not to spam. So what you are saying then: it's fine for us to spam as long as we do it in Chat and Games..... Okay, that's good to know.

Ah **** it, I can't be bothered

Within reason of course

Ahhhh.....so effectively it depends on who is doing the spamming. so it's a rule sometimes.

There's a difference between outright spam and just a bit of fun really, if someone posted gibberish or one thing in a thread repeatedly I'd think a mod would class it as spam.

If wanted to see spam you should've seen the days of Tommy and Jessica's antics

Yes, that was a perfect example of not within reason.............as much as I liked both Tommy and Jess

Which is why I'm raising the point. I'd regard these type of posts below as such....and they aren't on the chat n games section.

Oh I agree completely with those examples.

And it all leads back to the OP of this thread. An irritating troll who adds NOTHING to the forum, sorry for my harshness but there is no other way of putting it.

Mods give us back Stacey and you can have, Michael21, tomflint AND Salman.

I think that's a fair deal

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

and tommy and thomas

[Doogle]

Sounds like a good deal to me.

[MTVN]

They were started after Arista made a Denise vs KFC thread, and another member also made a housemate vs food poll (can't remember who), nobody complained about any of them so they were just left as they were

[Kate!]

Lmao at this entire thread, all for a non existent bday. Highly amusing.

Mikey! don't go changing

And that is precisely my point. Arista raised one thread - with the OP then following on from that - and spamming with multiple threads of the same nature - yet all that was allowed..... despite them not being in the 'crap' (not my word) Chat section of the forum.
