Considering that spam is off-topic advertising or repeatedly posting over and over with no purpose...no. The forum's not spam. The 1 million post thread basically is nothing but spam, though.Also, most people seem to have the idea that "they disagreed with me" is trolling which...isn't true.

Well if you view it like that then maybe it shows that certain mods are getting a little too excited about locking threads and should maybe take a step back and think for themselves? OTF lives off trolling and the spam around it, that's what it is, it just makes no sense that all of this is happening nowAnd I understand that if it affects someone, then yes mods should deal with that and I agree with that, but the whole thing that set it off, washy and rog swearing at eachother, was affecting no one as people are swearing constantly in that thread at least
The OTF does not live off of trolling and spam, and I can't believe anyone would be so foolish as to claim that. There really is only one 'spam' thread in the forum - and the OTF lived for a good long time before that was created.

Your 'conclusion' is wrong, because the OTF is still bound to KMC forum rules.

Invalid because you are wrong, more likely.
Spam is off-topic, yes. But it is not the same as off-topic discussion. The latter is people interacting. The former is people screwing around to boost post count and/or advertising.

Not directly at the mods.Really, flaming a mod is stupid. Even though, the actual post is simply ignoring warnings, and misunderstanding the situation...which made no ****ing sense, you can't say stuff like this happens all the time, because it hasn't.
I'm not talking about the trolling to the mods though, or anyone for that matter, if it's directed at someone with hostile intent then yeah whatever action should be taken, but that doesn't usually happen, I mean Washy wasn't hostile at all, if anyone knows him on this forum, and most do, it'd be a surprise to think Washy was being hostile

Well that 'spam' thread was still there, and was a big part of the OTF, I don't know about every other thread being squeaky in the OTF but I guess everyone interprets things differently
