Title: Don't spam, properly get to 50.
Post by: Zooey on May 07, 2013, 02:56 pm
Wouldn't it be a lot more fun if we could write proper stuff instead of just spamming random keystrokes?

Seems like a much more worthy and mature way to get to 50 posts! =)

Not necessarily, you can answer other people's questions, and perhaps even ask some of your own. This does take a while though, unfortunately...

@uklad76: Everyone's having problems at the moment but hopefully it'll come through asap :)  There's a thread on the issue below: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=156494.0

Good idea! Isn't it a lot better to actually get something from your journey to 50 posts instead of just posting jibberish? =)

Oh, oh! How was the slap chop? I've seen it a bunch of times but thought it was a crappy item that you'll use once and then throw in to a cupboard.

And buy some cannabis for your coins!

Nobody likes a scammer! You should report him or her.

But remember to not yell wolf before you're absolutely certain that you've actually been scammed. People who think they've been scammed because a package didn't arrive the day that was expected doesn't mean that the vendor is a scammer. It could also be the postal services that messed up, or the package is just one day late.

So be careful not to yell wolf too early. But still make sure that others are warned if it's a scammer =)

It really is not as bad as it seems. The general idea is for newbies to be able to learn without cluttering up the rest of the forum. 50 may be a bit much, but it also serves as a spam blocker.

I joined the forums as a newbie, even though I had plenty of experience on the main site. I spent my first 50 posts answering questions and providing guidance to newbies. I still occasionally pop down here to see if there is anything I can help with.

If you have something you want to be seen in the main forum, such as reporting a scammer, you can post it here and then request that it be copied over to the main forum by someone else.

I think people are just too impatient. It doesn't have too take that much time to get to 50 posts. And if someone checks your previous post and your first 50 posts are just random spam, I would not find that person very trustworthy.

But people of course do as they want! If someone want to spam 50 posts, I don't have any problem with it at all. As long as it doesn't affect threads where people are trying to have serious discussions :)

You know why I want to get to the Rumor Mill? To post on the feedback thread of a vendor.
The guy was a legend and I want to let people know (surely that counts as useful info for the community?), but the forum is actively encouraging 50 posts of crap before you're allowed to say something useful.

Vendor feedback is pretty much the only thing I intend to post, but I've yet to drum up the patience to spam first.

It's quite a lot with 50 posts. But there's no real rush to get there either now is it? :)

I actually made this account for the sole purpose of posting a nice comment on a vendor that really deserves it. Just like you :)

Patience is a virtue

I seen this and had to post to it, even if someone has said this.  Is this not the reason we all want to get to 50 posts? At least, those of us that are... Well, I can't explain it. Either you get it or you don't. This post seems to be doing much better than my post to help me get to 50. I agree with you, Zooey.  That posting something beneficial or at least not just complete bullshit is in my opinion worthy of doing... I refuse to just post a bunch of random shit.

If it's only because of not allowing bots and people to spam, 10 post would have sufficed. Maybe even 5 posts would have been enough.

Quite annoying trying to spam in the designated "spam" threads when it takes you 20 minutes to get 1 post due to the "While you were typing X amount of people have replied in this thread etc etc".

First world problems, I suppose.

People will still spam just this way it takes them longer to get the privileges to do so.

I believe you should be judged on the merit of your opinion not the amount of posts you've made.

But my way would require more managment from mods etc. So its understandable that theyuse this system.

Oh yes. I completely agree! But people should still need like 10 posts in order to prevent spammers from ruining stuff
