Spam Parody/Awareness
dk
MemberLegendDec-18-2019 11:06 PMLooks like spammers are starting to run amok. They pretend to know a little about your topic and then set a link for anything from dick growing miracles to student loans. REPORT THIS BS!
I have to admit that they sometimes hit old cool threads and bump them for reviewing, but that is as generous as I can be.
Report so that they can be shot from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

If people weren't lazy, we wouldn't try to be efficient. If we weren't efficient, we'd never get anything done.

The song is "We're Not Gonna Take It" by Twisted Sister on their "Stay Hungry" album, so turn on the volume.

Spam Awareness Day must exist! It helps us all realize how we can stop the spam dead in its tracks, and get us prepared for the war against spam! PREPARE FOR WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!!!!!
But in all seriousness, a spam awareness day would be pretty fun, kinda like that old raptor awareness day they used to have on the JW forums, I think. A day to parody the spam... it would be glorious! XD

MemberLegendDec-19-2019 11:04 PMI appreciate the fake spams. We did a thread on fake spams a couple years ago and it was all in good fun. It was clearly identified as parody though.
Mods and Admin are always playing whack a mole, but if you see one, help them out by sending the offender's identity to them. The offenders disappear pretty quickly.

MemberRespectedDec-19-2019 11:18 PMA wild spammer appeared! Seriously, there's a new spammer that had the audacity to spam on another topic while we're having a discussion about having a Spam Awareness Day. I think it's a sign from the god of not spamming that we should create it and begin the holy war against spam.
In all seriousness, I'd absolutely love having one day a year dedicated to spam awareness, parodying it, and spamming a bunch of fake spam. Hell, maybe even find a way to spam the spammers! XD

MemberRespectedDec-20-2019 12:56 AMBesides, since original fake spam topic AND the Spam Awareness Day topics were your ideas, you should have the honor of doing it. If you choose to do it, of course

MemberConversationalistDec-20-2019 10:05 AMDo I get to lead it?

MemberRespectedDec-20-2019 10:12 AMOnly time will tell... but I guess since this was the establishing day, the real thing won't be until next year. So, for now, no plans need to be made.

MemberLegendDec-20-2019 11:00 AMTheLazyFish You should just mark it on next year's calendar and prepare. Then you could spring it on everybody who will have likely forgotten all about it :)
