Apparently that still holds true - the best place to hide a SPAM thread is in a thread titled "Spam".


I get the idea MattyBoy!

Why don't we let this thread to dry out?!

You guys have turned my thread to Spam

So long...

then can anyone tell me what a 'troll' is?
I know more or less what it is, but I need a good/correct definition.

Actus reus- Making contentious/controversial posts.

Mens rea- Doing so not through deeply-held convictions, or in the spirit of healthy debate, or even through good old-fashioned anger, but in a calculated attempt to annoy others and provoke a heated reaction in order to gratify the "troll" in question.

Well, I'm suprised that this thread is still open, because I KNEW that this is what would happen.

Why don't the mods seem to know?

I remember the last time I saw a spam thread that went on for pages. It was in the civ3 section right before its release. Lets see, the starter got a 100% PCR and a couple of other people got punished.
