I guess I'm in the minority, but what exactly is offensive about the word Spam or spamming.?..?.
it implies that the thing being advertised lacks worth or value. Given the passion and love in those threads that’s offensive.

Yeah not following there either. I also don't really get what's offensive about the word "edgy" but again here we are.I guess I'm in the minority, but what exactly is offensive about the word Spam or spamming.?..?.
If I was ever passionate enough to push an agenda to someone I considered my friend and after awhile, they said, dude can you stop spamming me with your opinion, I can see being hurt for a bit. Like, dude I'm trying to help you with your alcoholism! Why can't you see that?!I guess I'm in the minority, but what exactly is offensive about the word Spam or spamming.?..?.

if it's anything else I'm gonna be so upset, like you don't even know
But, but, but all those poor lonely Russian women need your money or an eggplant.Spam is worthy of deletion without reading. Spam is junk. I don't think I'm alone in saying that I have a Spam folder in my email that I don't even open - I just delete everything in the folder every few days. That's Spam.
Now imagine someone sitting down to choose an album that they love. And that they want to share. And they map out several clues. And they work hard on their write up for that album. They put themselves out there because the choice is personal. It is a nerve wracking process.
And then it's called Spam.
That's a deflating gut punch.

Is that the team in the thingy with the same bastard leech owners who are bleeding my football club dry?

Yeah, that classification was the part I most regretted about my blow up post.
OMFG IT IS
This is what I assumed as well. It's the message that is unwanted, not what the message contains.To me it implies that the messages doing the advertising are unsolicited and out of place, not that the thing being advertised is worthless. I'm sure Shen Yun is a lovely production, but I don't need posters about it everywhere I go.
Was that insulting? I was trying to convey something extreme enough that I would have an agenda to push on my friend w/ the chance of being rebuked after awhile. I'm sorry if that example was insensitive.Really? That’s the analogy you’re going to use? Nice....

And again, I really don't think anyone is referring to the AOTM thread as spam. It was literally just a one-day period when everyone was taking over the front page to advertise it, and people kept trying to reroute conversations about VMP titles in VMP threads to talk about how much better the N&G AOTM is. Which I'm sure is true, but it was exhausting.
I just want everyone to know that DjX is STILL not a DJ but he is STILL my friend. He and I have chatted about this. He was right about how much we were posting and so I stopped. I will say that we got a bit excited in our posting and went into overdrive, it was pointed out, I adjusted. DjX + Te^5 = FF (or something like that)

Probably the same reason why I keep reading it in Graham Chapman's voice.How do you know I consider the poor lonely Russian women that need my money Spam?
And why am I constantly capitalizing Spam? Lol.
