Reently a new member was attacked in this here general forum for spamming, even though I don't really believe that her drivel (yes it was drivel) was spam. As such I thought the attacks on her were unjustified. She has left the forum as a result.
However, what does annoy me a lot more, and I consider it to be spamming, are spin-off threads were one or more words in the title are changed from the title of another thread.
This is the lamest of the lame of forum humour.
She is back now, but to a lesser degree. She didn't mean any harm she was only new. Unless they did it to her again. 😠
I agree, it gets kind of old. I think most the time it is used to change the subject or divert it somewhere else and it's kind of rude. But that's nothing new. I bet there will be a spin off to this one too.

You might not like spin off threads but as SS said people post in them and others do enjoy reading them.
In the clans forum there is the constant IVV Metallica playground thing but people still like the debates (well someone out there does)
Then there are the sports forums as well.
Here at RHP there are forums for everybody and everyone is entitled to their opinion.
It is such a pity that because of a minortity of people on this site that so many choose to avoid the forums

Originally posted by knightwestAh, yes, the good old spam debate. Facsinating.

Anyway, sometimes the spin offs are funny.
