Spammer...

How would you describe it, like a push or shove?
Guess I could pretend that this is all I need
Wanting more than what I have might appear as greed.

The real spammers have over 10,000 posts.
I don't know what I call those guys... The Spammer Deluxe Contingent? Ultra Spam?
And only about half your posts are spam... good work.

One reason, I think, is that the topics tend to get recycled a lot. There are only so many responses one can make to the common issues of AS...
After a couple of months of thoughtful posting... it tends to get boring if that's all you are posting about.
I tend to make only two types of posts, serious discussion... or jokes. The best is when I can combine the two.
nb411 you have succeeded in turning a spam thread into a serious discussion... congratulations.

If I could narrow it down, I'd say that most spam falls into one of four categories:
(1) CONSTANT posting in threads such as "What are you listening to", "World of Constant War" or "Last person to post wins".
(2) Endless bickering - lengthy exchanges of one or two word insults.
(3) Multiple posts in direct succession, instead of just editing the first one.
(4) "Hi, welcome to WP!"

Eh, I have my moments of weakness...
I don't even want to tell you what happened that one night... it's all a blur of assassins and knights... and I think I'm pregnant...
