Hmm... well, not to name names or anything, but there are few people here who seem to simply be posting several very similar threads with several very similar posts inside... and frankly, I don't like it. Not only are they only doing it for the contest, it bumbs down all the other topics.

I don't know, I'm just a little frustrated when people do this.

While I could debate about your quality of posts insane, it is not you I'm reffering to... I think everyone knows of whom I am speaking of.

That user has posted the same template of words in all introductions by simply changing the users name...

Then he goes and makes general threads like "What is your favorite _____?" , "Have you _____ ?" which I find really annoying...

Hopefully this contest doesn't turn into something bad because it already seems like it will.

Indeed. You've hit it on the head.

Lol, I sure have extra time on my hands...

I stayed in a thread where he posted, and refereshed a couple of times... every two to four refreshes he had a new post... and Im talking just doing CTRL + R.

I know that saying names isn't nice, but it's certainly the way to fully address a problem.

I was thinking exactly the same about the same person. Something needs to be done about him.

Yes. I sent a message to Lee, so hopefully he'll see it when he logs in.

Luckily there's a 30 second wait before he can post... image if he only had to wait like 5 seconds?!

Guys I think welcoming new guys is a good Idea .. When I entered and some welcomed me I felt really interested more
But when I see new members welcoming members from 7 days... I Laugh really lol what a flood or Scam ...
I always welcome newer members than me to let them feel home but not members from last page .. I told you I got mad not knowing who are new members and who are not and I set the order By "Thread Start Time" Instead Of "Last Reply Time" ...

Yeah, he's been at it for a few hours I bet... thing is, I think he's doing it for the contest - and he actually expects to win like that when the contest announcement specifically states that short spam posts won't count.

I hope he's reading this thread.

Great that you address this.

There are a lot of us posting mass amounts of posts, but you really got to bring som value to the community with it.

Hey folks,

With any contests, there are going to be questionable situations. The staff will decide what should or shouldnt be included in this contest.

In the mean time, you you have concerns, please report things you feel are not within the guidelines rather than creating threads.

We see any reports you make and will evaluate them all.

Thanks.
