Complaining won't help, flagging and reporting will.

It's spam bots, and they seem to have gotten 300% worse in the last 2 hours. I'm sick of it as well, and I think Armor Games should require a random code to be put in before each post to prevent spamming. There's 3 pages of pure spam on the forums now >

^ Yay for spam win.

Seriously, advertising is a fact of life. Yes, it's against AG rules. Yes, it's annoying. But does making this thread change what they're going to do? No. So all you've done is contribute to the spam by making more spam related to their spam.

Congratulations.

@kasic
i am totally aware of that link. i have already read it. i have also already stated that this thread itself is spam. i also was not responsible for creating this thread, but i stand for its purpose. their is nothing wrong with that. it is obvious that this thread will be locked eventually but in its own twisted way, it is getting the word out about this, as many users do not look at the stickies that often. look how many views.....54. look how many views this thread, 158. if the mods wished for this thread to be locked, it would have been done a while ago.

and yeah, spam bots are programs that spam sites uncontrollably. you know the random letters in weird font you need to type in to make an account on most sites? yeah, that helps prevent against spam bots.
