You can tell who the spammers and flamers will be just by their names? It seems like on every site I join, they have names that you can't pronounce and have a couple x's in front. The people with normal names though (Normal, like Green12324...wait, that's awesome. Not normal.) anyway, the people with normal names usually are...well...normal. Ever noticed that?
Me too but I was a bit bored of posting xxxxxx, so I just posted one x which was equal to many. x's=xxxxx. p.s. I get a bit carried away when I see an x, cause of so many years studying math.
I think my name is rather weird <.< If I added any numbers, that would make my account look like spammer.
But seriously, I've met people with weird usernames that are actually quite friendly. And how do you know that a person with a very simple username isn't a spammer?
1. Just ignore them, they will be 'crazy' if they provoke others and no one responds. They will got bored soon.
2. Try to talk a bit, they usually aggressive and think that they are the only one smart and have the right argument.
3. When you are in depress condition, you are tend to spam or angry. But think about spamming in the long run, other user's don't deserve to 'feel' our condition. If you are depressed, get some fresh air, ask a friend, hang out or sleep. That's it.
I think it's true because on XBL, kids with those kinds of names are usually D bags and i just mute them. what would putting xxxxxxxxgunner8785987957349 do for me? i don't understand the "x" thing
I don't think that is a viable method really...Although it sometime works, there is a much better way of checking.
Take the comments, subtract their games rated, and if they have many fewer pages of comments on their profile than the amount sent out, I consider them a spammer.
