Its already been created but some members are having complaints that its not needed. What do you, as apart of the community think? I'm ok with it because it leaves no excuses for people to take part in spam convos elsewhere around the forums.

i think it should be...say anything. like things that are just on your mind...it doesnt matter what it is. its a nice way of saying "hey you can spam here" without people possibly noticing.

He still made it a game. Plus, most of the games are technically spam, so I agree it's good to have it there

I think it's a good idea.

For those who don't have AIM and want to just talk to people without spamming on regular boards. Of course, this should mean less spam.

I think if it reduces to spam, stuff like "hey bob you never gave me those songs" or "hey bob call me tonight", it should stay. But if it doesn't, then it should go. Forum games are spam, no?

but the rules of the game only dictate that the 1st post on the 20th page is the winner....

whatever happens to get there is up to the members.

i think it's stupid. if you really need to talk to someone, freakin pm them. you could always call them on the phone, talk to them on a messenger, myspace, email, etc. the community guidelines state that spam is not allowed, so basically this is going against the rules.

So it really isn't a "spam convo" topic.
But I was addressing the reply that all Forum Games were spam.

.....
it's not an actually spam convo thread. it has just as much of a point as any other game.

I dont think it should be called a spam topic and I also believe forum games arent spam as long as the rules are followed. Maybe the last one who posts will get some sort of special recognition in the new version. Same rules apply in this convo thread however, a member cant just come in and say "wow!!" and leave because thee no convo to build off of that.

^ No.
Forum Games are not spam.

As long as you don't break the rules of the game, you aren't spamming.

I think you're not right on this one, i saw you and many others who are now on staff or maybe higher, all day in those games and creating even more just to make those pPD faster, so no, its a spam anyway anyhow. (btw if you dont know what the word "spam" means try google, its the wonderland) Oh im sowwy you were the Queen of those.

Heh, mby, you just have to check from time to time. (now mby not, but in the past it was, maybe a bug or maybe not, but the ppd was rising)

i may be old but i am not blind(yet) plus i dont have any reason to lie.
...just passin by to say Hi.
