It's not spam if they're having a real conversation, but the conversations never really have anything to do with the thread, so it becomes spam anyway, right?
So the entire 'Count to 100' thread is spam. None of the conversations can really be considered to be about the thread, and just posting a number is spam anyway. So yea...
No, they can have conversations about anything in it. As long that it is not spam. Because there isn't really a way to contribute to the topic. You are right, just posting a number is spam.
I honestly don't really like it a lot anymore. I only like the rate the above threads in the FG section.
Of course. The rest is just a bunch or RPGs, all of which die out extremely fast. The rate the above threads not only have a point and stay active, the feed my huge ego! =P
