Why do people moan about eachother when they *chat* and don`t use much words in there posts?
When someone writes: I like bananas alot?? that is defined as spamming.
But if someone writes:how are you today they also get moaned at.WHY?
The whole purpose of these *chat* rooms is to *chat*.
Eveybody stop moaning will you.

Well... that made a mess :) ...

Here try this instead :)

:spam: vt. [from "Monty Python's Flying Circus"] 1. To
crash a program by overrunning a fixed-size buffer with excessively large input data. See also {buffer overflow}, {overrun screw}, {smash the stack}. 2. To cause a newsgroup to be flooded with irrelevant or inappropriate messages. You can spam a newsgroup with as little as one well- (or ill-) planned message (e.g. asking "What do you think of abortion?" on soc.women). This is often done with {cross-post}ing (e.g. any message which is crossposted to alt.rush-limbaugh and alt.politics.homosexuality will almost inevitably spam both groups).

at the time, it was either spam or your own unpleasantarys. You couldn't tell them apart by taste, but you can tell which most people preferred.
