I have seen this a lot. This would be on a spammer's profile:

"Why are you spamming?"
"Dude, don't spam!"
"STOP SPAMMING!"

Please, don't spam the spammers, just tell a moderator!

Yeah, this goes for topics, too. The spammer makes the topic, doesn't do anything else, while about 7 or 8 people all tell him he's spamming, essentially being worse than the actual spammers. And then I have to tell them to shut up, we got the fact we was spamming the first time someone said something.

People tend to do the same thing with bad suggestions as well.It gets annoying after awhile.Ironically though we are all heading down that exact path with this thread.

All we can really do is frown upon spammers. It's not worth wasting our time to complain about their AP-getting habits.

Well you are just telling them to stop, not really spamming, I usually tell them to stop then tell a moderator, sometimes.

IT ONLY TAKES ONE PERSON TO TELL THE PERSON TO STOP SPAMMING


Finally someone agrees with me. Not just telling them to stop but for other things as well. I remember a thread about a game and four people in a row put, "What is it?" So annoying...

I know, just like when someone needs help with something like 'wats AP?' and 50 people answer the same thing!
I understand people post while you'r typing your own or the other way around but that's not always the case.
Unless the person doesn't understand what the other people are saying, DON'T POST!!! Really annoying.
Same with Spam Topics. 50 people in a row saying 'this is spam' isn't helping anything o_o

Yeah, I see a lot of that, the people telling the people to not spam become spammers themselves. We're kinda doing that with this thread here...

telling the spammers to stop spamming isn't bad rlly cause all ur doing is telling them to stop wat they are doing... which is important and telling a mod would be the same thing AP wise...when telling a spammer to stop spamming it should only tkae one person to do it...if another person does it THEN it would be true spam on a spammers profile...

Telling spammers to "stop" is just going to get them to do it more. We just need to ignore them, and if it gets to be too much, then tell a mod or an admin.
