The reason why you actually get those awards is because you are the most active (and funny). Big whooping deal. It really doesn't prove anything.Also, whether you want to admit it or not, you do spam. Deny it all you want. But I dare you, ask every longstanding member privately and ask them to tell you the truth. You'll get your answer.</div> Melo brought this up last night in a team board. I am taking him up on his offer. Am I a spammer? Is Melo061 correct? Respond honestly.
 
You are somewhat of a spammer. I mean, whoever has 35 posts per day can be considered a spammer. Sometimes your post are more than 3 words, and you actually add to a conversation, yet there are plenty of times where you clearly don't and you are just wasting forum space.
 
Melo is right, in a way. You do know what you are talking about, but yes, you do have a TON of one-line posts on BBW, including almost every single topic you've made today. There is a difference between you and a flat-out "spammer" though. Again, at least we know that you do know what you are talking about.
 
20% of your posts are SPAM IMO. Most of the time are thought out. But you never spam in NBA,NCAA, or Draft related topics.
 
Yes, you are a spammer who makes too many one line posts. At the same time you also offer good quality posts as well, so they cancel each other out.
 
I looked it up, and Melo has just as many one liner posts as I do.

But at the same time, this topic isn't about his posts. It's about yours.

You can look up all a members posts/topics by going to the left side panel, it's an option.
 
Yes, you do have a lot of one line posts and do appear to be a post count whore at times. At the same time, your major contributions in creating topics and giving your 2 cents on many topics makes you a very valuable and respected member.
 
Everyone in some way spams, who gives a sh*t. BCB at least makes a good amount of posts that are not spam. But right now, with your goal on making 50 topics. That's verging on being a spammer, this morning I said no. Right now, I'd say your trying to make a point with the 50 topics. It's hard to make a couple of topics that get discussion started. 50 is pushing it, really pushing it.Since you do make good posts, I wouldn't label you a spammer.

I don't really care much about my post count. I care far more about my topics per day than anything, and for a spammer....if thats what I am...I never post in the Games Thread which is pretty much a spammers paradise, I only reply to things I'm interested it.
 
Melo061 is going to rip me a new ***hole when he see's this thread....I totally got owned.

Stupid post count, it always starts fights because of a stupid number. I honestly don't give two shits about the number of post I have, I'm just here to talk some sports damn it.

I just thought it was funny...no need to get pissy over nothing.
 
I wouldn't say you were a spammer. sometimes a reply to a post only warrents one line. spam is if you put "lol" in every post.
 
You can't have 35 paragraphed posts a day, that's the truth. There's no reason to. So in a way, you spam. But there's no of question what you give to this board.You shouldn't feel bad at all about this. Actually overall, I wouldn't even call you a spammer.
 
Err... We all know my history with Melo, so I should be inclined to automatically side with BCB.Then again, I've also called BCB a spammer in the past.And, most importantly, I've only been back for half a week.From what I recall, many of your posts were one liners. However, what I have came to realize after dwelling at several other message boards is that that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The bottom line is that BBW is a message board, one that has lost members but somehow kept a majority of its core over a near two year run.If BCB wants to reply to a topic with one line, he's inclined to. The fact of the matter is, one liners don't degrade intelligence nor amplify it; they state an opinion, we are all entitled to our opinions, and if we feel a certain way that is our state of mind and we have all the right in the world to stick by them.While the topics here are often overwhelmingly debated, there is, in all honestly, a certain overzealousness about many posts and a complete lack of understanding. Many posts that delve into arguments can span paragraphs and paragraphs, all while being hard to understand, hard to agree with, and... OK, I'm not going to hold back. Many long posts will probably end up being sh*tty, useless, and wrongly-driven.So if toleration of badly written and badly presented argument runs freely, why can't BCB let his opinions be known in simple fashion? They're his opinions, he doesn't need to explain them, he is entitled to them. This isn't a political debate regarding stem cell research that in turn controls transaction of millions ($$$), this is a basketball forum - if BCB wants to post alot and do so within short tirades, thats fine.There is a fine line between spam and posting briefly. Yes, BCB does spam a tad more than you'd like ("I'm leaving the board... Just Kidding!" "I have 10,000 posts!"), but most of the time he replies in acceptable fashion. For that, I deem the credit he receives...Worthy! :worthy:
 
Can't we all just get along, btw BCB you're def. a super spammer. But your also supreme ownage sometimes in your posts so.....

BCB is not a spammer

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (7Goat @ Apr 12 2007, 02:09 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>You can't have 35 paragraphed posts a day</div>I beg to differ! 35 paragraph posts per day is perfectly feasible given time effort and....... okay it's not worth it.
 
You're being an emo now. I don't believe I ever said you aren't a valuable user. You keep bbw moving. But again, you spam.And I don't have as many one liners as you do. I don't know where you got that from.
