I've been alerted to the amount of spamming going on in these forums, and I'd like it to stop, immediately. It really is quite pointless posting meaningless words over and over again, and people who replay, just quoting the message are just as bad. I know the Longest Thread is just a bit of fun, but people have complained that the spamming is getting too much, so quit it.

People like KR, big_slow and Timmy have all boosted their word count significantly in this manner, while other people work hard writing good posts and don't even get on the list because it's filled with spammers. If it continues, we won't hesitate in banning the offending spammer, as it just wastes our time, your time and everyone elses time too.

Stop it. Thanks.

Can I just ask one question.....in the Longest Thread during the day, is it ok for people to chat......I know what you mean about the likes of KR, big_slow etc but there are others here who use the Longest Thread to chat during the day, most of which is not one or two word posts but intelligent conversations with a lighter note added?

In the evenings I don't even bother coming onto that thread due to the fact that it is impossible to have a decent conversation!

With all fairness, this post is not going to stop them, i have seen the likes of Big_Slow and others still spamming in there after many other messages like this one. If your really wanting it to stop, like almost all the other posters in here, and on SR, your going to have to take some action instead of giving out warning after warning, because they just dont listen.
