Besides, I wasn't talking about the lounge specifically, I just posted here because I don't like making topics. It was directed toward the whole of the AF.
it feels odd to be lectured by a 13 year old..
and who cares man - you're just adding to the spam by repeating over and over like a broken record patronizing paragraphs of things noone bothers to read neways - wanna stop the spam? Don't add to it! Just do your own thing and don't worry about everyone else.

3) Although rambling and ranting will be allowed and even encouraged, spamming will not be
tolerated; as with any other part of the BBS, there are rules that must be obeyed. Flagrant
disregard of these rules will be rewarded with post deletion and possibly a ban.
Try reading the god damn rules.
They're post there for a reason.
And I don't want to look like a dipshit because of your restlessness.
Dispel the energy by making a very confusing song.

spoon, wanna stop the spam? the best way is to simply PM a mod when things gets out of hand... thisi s hte lounge, but it easily gets out of hand here too. why do we have the lounge in the first place? cant we have a good time without abusing the bbs rules and the "ethical" af lounge rulse?
i havent cared much for the lounge latley because its pretty obvious some ppl are just filling it up with spam... it increases with like 5 pages/day or whatever, and there arent THAT many ppl in this forum.
Do remember ppl that there are other ways to communicate as well, and some conversations might be best hold otherplaces (msn, aim w/e) then here...

that's a good question rucklo? why do we have this lounge?
but then you gotta ask:
why do we have an advertisements thread?
why do we have an introduction thread?
i have the answer.
it's because everybody on this forum loves to break rules and by makin' an official thread that won't get locked, or counted as spam, or get you a ban for postin' posts that are blantantly against the rules of the bbs, is all just somethin' that we like to get away with.
and i don't wanna hear one person argue with me about this.
the only reason that we have an audio advertisements thread is so we can post our adverts there. it has nothin' to do with tryin' to keep the "listen to my shit" topics down that are posted by noobs. it's for our benefit, not the neat and tidyness of the audio forum.
so upon statin' those facts i'd like to say:
*raises glass*
HERE'S TO 10,000 MORE POSTS OF COMPLETE SHITE THAT BREAKS EVERY RULE THAT THIS BBS HAS!!!!!!!
HIP-HIP-HOORAY! and all that fun fuckin' stuff.

Hah, you guys sure never get bored of the same routine. Some people spam. Someone gets pissed off and rants about the spam. Then a swarm of others tell that someone that by speaking out agaisnt spam they are actually contributing to it. Then I say to all of you, you hypocrite spammers, aren't YOU contributing to the spam by telling the pissed spammer to stop spamming about the oblivious spammers spamming? And aren't I spamming if I'm telling hypocrite spammers to stop spamming about pissed spammers spamming about oblivious spammers spamming about cock jokes? I guess so... SPAM! SPAM! SPAM!

No, it's not because they're there, it's how they got there. Each thread started as a propostion to "reduce clutter" (Note, this is initial, nobody sat down and said "HMM, let's reduce the amount of spam in the lounge by 15%") and "redirect" people to not be shitheads and Make their own threads. Not just not post in the lounge.

Nobody reads that unless they know the artist. Advertisements get burried until someone gets in a good mood which isn't very often.
The audio forum has it's loopholes but if you're going to corrupt it with this new philosophy then I think a lot of bad things will happen.

i told you that i didn't wanna hear anybody argue with me about this. oh well. i guess some people just don't like my opinion. but i'm gonna voice another point anyway.
it would be just as easy to tell somebody that made their own advert thread that it's against the rules of this forum to do so, as it is to tell them to post their advert in the advert thread. thus, proving that the advert thread is not needed but that it's solely there because we want a place to advertise our new tracks.
to me it seems like there is no point for the advert thread other than that. it doesn't ruduce clutter. it makes one more thread. which according to the rules of the bbs is against the rules to be there since it blantanly goes against the rule of not makin' advert threads. see my point?
now i'm not sayin' to change the way the bbs is, far from it. what i am sayin' is that it's pretty obvious to see that the only reason we have these threads with so many pages of posts is because we like to take advantage of every loophole we can. after all, we're musicians. we like to find openings and fill 'em.

It seems like all anyone ever does on this message board is talk about how someone is breaking the rules. While I agree that spam threads are dumb things that stupid attention whores create, there is little someone besides a moderater can do.

Too bad, when you decide to drop logic for a little fun in the sandbox that is the AF, there's going to be opposition.
it would be just as easy to tell somebody that made their own advert thread that it's against the rules of this forum to do so
They're called exceptions. Posting your advertisement isn't spamming, posting it over and over and over everywhere is. Having your posting record and reason for the BBS to be spam and advertisements is a contradiction in of itself. You ARE in a spammer in this case. You DO break the rules in this case. If the purpose of the lounge, which has it's own purpose seperate of spam, is to spam, then the rest of the forum can be spammed if you use that logic.
as it is to tell them to post their advert in the advert thread. thus, proving that the advert thread is not needed but that it's solely there because we want a place to advertise our new tracks.
No shit.
to me it seems like there is no point for the advert thread other than that.
What is it called again?
I'll have my hearing aid on so I can have the question echoed across the world.
HI ADVERTISEMENT THREAD.
it doesn't ruduce clutter. it makes one more thread. which according to the rules of the bbs is against the rules to be there since it blantanly goes against the rule of not makin' advert threads. see my point?
Exceptions are exception. Did you miss the part where the threads were personally excused by Denvish?
This forum is in pretty much another dimension for the mods, which is why they were never here. They didn't know how to enforce the rules they knew about in a forum that had several different purposes. Only now to say, "Hey, no spam, in those areas you know not to".
That means, this is a lounge post:
"Hey guys, what's up?"
Not:
"BANANAS, CAKES, MUFFINS, LOLZER AND SDGSAFGN".
now i'm not sayin' to change the way the bbs is, far from it. what i am sayin' is that it's pretty obvious to see that the only reason we have these threads with so many pages of posts is because we like to take advantage of every loophole we can. after all, we're musicians. we like to find openings and fill 'em.
They are loopholes, but shitty ones because nobody actually uses them. You recieve the absolute ass-end of beneficiaries by using something that doesn't work.
You're right, we're all so selfish and whorish for using our own system to help ourselves. Nevermind that none of us are rock stars yet. Maybe your models will work when the system is actually corrupt.
