The Wonderland Board

(could someone edit first post and ad this to it?:)
I made a graph for this board's spam.




I added the poll to see if you agree.
Yah.: Yes, this came out of "Ya".
Nah: NO.

It's probably a bit less spam than that, but yeah. Pretty much.

People complaining about spam on this forum without doing anything against it, don't make sense to me, even more if those people are top ten spammers theirselves. That's just the same as saying that something is bad without giving a good reason why you find that.

So, if the question would be: "Is this topic spam?", then my answer would be: Yes!

My answer would be half-and-half.
-it has a purpose
-it's understandable
-it's not advertising
-another topic has already been created

There are so many more users that don't post than that. And there is less Spam than that. So the green area would take over a lot of the red area. And the blue area would take over some of the red area.

XPR, I only agree with your 3rd and 4th point.

About:

1. I think a topic about spam can only have a purpose, if people point out every spam post, also trying to explain why they think it's spam, so the Mods can move posts, lock topics etc., and if there's too much spam from one person, then Patrick can give such person a warning. (or eventually a ban) Then the amount of spam will decrease.
   
   This topic does nothing of that, so please tell me what's the purpose.
2. The picture doesn't say anything about the amount of normal posts and spam posts on this forum, it only shows people. And I dare to say that the picture is suggesting a big lie. Because it suggests there are people who always post normal posts, and other people who always post spam. So in which category do we put ^_^ himself. I think sometimes he's posting spam (perhaps a few months ago more then nowadays, but nevermind, I don't think he's 100% spam-free) but sometimes he also can write some useful or fun things.
   
   So that's one thing which is un-understandable. The other thing is: Who are the people who never post? (the green part) All the billions (read American billions ) of people on the entire world? Then the green part would be 99.9999%. All the 12000 registered forummembers? Then it still would be 98%. Or only the people who watch the forum at least once in a week? Did ^_^ perhaps a secret poll among all forummembers (except me) to ask how many times they watch the forum?
   
   If you think it's understandable, then please explain me, so it will be understandable to me as well

I'm surprised by how many people voted "yah.".

When ^_^ said Spam, did he or she mean Spam, or Spammers?

Those are anonymous voters, who don't feel need to explain their vote, so don't worry about them.

BTW, I didn't vote at all, because this poll seems quite useless to me, but unfortunately there was no option: I find this poll useless.

About spam(mers), like you and I said before, it seems it's about people, and not about posts. The green and blue parts are about people, so we may assume that also the red part does.

derp.

Sorry, that doesn't make any sense to me. The green part is people, and the other parts, at least the blue part is stuff, and I think talking about spam is also stuff, and not people.

You can only make a graphic scale if all parts are about the same thing, either all parts are people, or all parts are posts.

Also I still don't have an answer to my questions in my other post.

D(er)P

BTW, what means "derp"?

I hope that won't offend ^_^.

Well, I got the idea that ^_^ has a very "thick skin", so I'm not really afraid of that.

Yeah, good point.That dude is tough.

Except the only reason Marinus is making posts like that is because you have been spamming moreso than not, and whenever it's pointed out you deny it.

This topic is getting way out of hand, locked.
