ummm i've been going to tha "top 10 posters today" link thing and some people get up to like... 100 posts per day which practically how much i have right now... and i was just wondering cause i see a lot of posts that have one sentence in them. at least when i post i try to type more and make it not look like spam. so .. is it really okay to just make a post with one sentence in it?... blink.gif

As long as it's not pointless and has meaning to it, then it's not SPAM. After all, "pointless" is in one of them.

^ Spam with one sentence on it.

Is everything clear enough now?

of course you can sum something up in one sentence without it being spam. not everyone is going to bother reading a big drawn out thing anyway

Like the many people said, if it's just ONE word, then it's considered spam or if it's something pointless. I don't think a one sentence thing is considered as pointless because you can pretty much summarize everything up in that one sentence.

when you type somethign pointless like that,

i don't think that most people in the #10 posters spam, maybe they just have alot of time on their hand to post up to 100 post per day. ( i know i wouldn't be able to do that)

Createblog has alot of spammy topics compared to other forums. about half of these topics would be closed. i bet when less people were here, less spammy topics would be made.

yeah, i agree. as long as it's not pointless, it's not spam. and sometimes, you can fit something meaningful into one sentence.

Yeah. If it's pointless, then it's spam.

Example::

Topic:: "Dresses, or skirts?"
Reply:: happy.gif

Now that's spam.
As long as they don't double post and have one worded posts, then most likely it's not spam/pointless.

Hah, I once got up past 200 posts...

Yeah, it's basically when you're incredibly bored and have way too much time on your hands.

PERSONALLY, I expect more than a mere "Ok, that's nice" or a mere "looking good!" or even a "lol". You know what? This one member from a month ago was posting the SAME sentence over and over again in the INTRODUCTIONS threads. Talk about spam. They just care about post count.. Bleh...
