Not nessessarily - the comments could just be quasi-spam. That would be an on-topic post that added nothing.

Or there is pseudo-spam (hard to define, ask a master about that)

Also we have secret-spam (posting where noone can see it)

And worst of all is on-topic-spam (discussing Civ3)

It is impossible to describe, one must discover and experience for themself. The closest analogy I can come with to describe it is 'doublespeak/doublethink'.

When I came up with the first categories it was I think after BC had already done some important work categorising standard spam into it's various components. We wanted to start a thread on it, but didn't think it would be a good idea.

I don't suppose you have a link to Dr Crunch's earlier works. I see no reason not to edit it together and host it off-site

Doc (I think?) asked if there would be a March list soon. I quoted you, saying it would be a couple of weeks yet. Later the same day you made this thread

umm no i dont use that date excpet as an aesthetic thing .

i use the posts per day as listed on your members page and that is calcualted by poly not using your 1970 date but either your actual date or somewhere close, not exactly sure, the second lsit is down using the posts per day for th elast month and is usally a little more accuarate...

Meta-spam bores me, I'm practising pseudo-spam a bit more. My main thrust now is to empirically research into ento-spam, peri-spam, para-spam and ambi-spam.

They're all very misunderstood parts of the hetero-spam group.

At last I'm on this kind of lists .



Btw, what happened to the first chart?. I have seen it before but now I can't

Ras, would you mind (seems like not ) to do a time to Emperor also for we Kings?.

Or...

Do a list of the top poster per country. (just becuase I know, I'm the onlyone active from Peru, and, alas, I going to win on that list )

Nice job

Looks good, except Ras, you still get my join date wrong. 30th of October, not the 1st. Not that it really matters though

That was the thread I was thinking of. IIRC this was just before I created metaspam as the term for one of those spam categories. If only search was working it'd be pretty easy to find.
