That is definitely nonsensical spam.

General Rules

1. No spamming.

This is why you were infracted.

Spam, A Closer Look

Spam is a serious issue here on our forums, something that is relatively disappointing. As we all know, the map section gets a lot of those "nice intarloking 5/5" comments. Some newer members seem to post such things regardless of warnings. Here are a few examples of comments that would be considered spam:

• Nice interlocking, will que for dl right away!

- Just because you promise to download does not make it an acceptable post.

• 5/5, the merging in this map looks phenomenal!

- Using big words does not mean that your post is any less spam.

• Thanks for the comment!

- Even though you might want to show your appreciation towards members posting on your map, it does not mean it's okay to bump your map with such spam.


Specifically in the map forums, feedback on maps that:

• Is composed of a single sentence
• Includes a rating without reasonable justification
• Shows no evidence of knowledge of the map in question other than that which can easily be seen from a glance at the pictures

Will be deleted immediately by the moderators. Infractions will also be awarded for spam at their discretion under these same rules.


Anything that could be deemed spam will get you in trouble. Try to put some meaning into your posts. Not only will you refrain from getting in trouble, but you will have provided an exceptional post for the creator of the thread to work with and possibly improve on. Lastly, it will it give you a bit more respect from the community, as our members appreciate long comments about different things that could be done to improve the thread - whether it is a video montage, or a map thread, or a topic in general chat/debate forums, etc etc.

What whats a scope said. Plus, you ignored the initial topic of this thread that states plain as day that this forum is not an infraction complaint forum and to take it up with the Mod who gave you the infraction.

Leaving this thread open was just asking for a nubcake to have a complain.

I'm locking it, but leaving it Stickied.
