    I have made a large amount of posts today and yesterday, is that considered spamming? They are constructive and legit. posts so I believe they aren't (hopefully)[smilie=5,20,18]

    I don't think anyone would care if somebody made 50 without-a-doubt constructive posts in an hour (though it'd take a genius and a really fast typer to do so ). Basically nobody cares how many posts you have made unless they are spam.

    Here's my definition of spam -

    Irrelevant posts, one and two word posts (Like 'Thanks', 'works good', 'lol','doesn't work' etc), and/or double posting

    Remember - Lots of posts /= spam (/= is does not equal)

    Btw IMO 9 posts isn't 'A large amount'

    EDIT: And yes, your posts do seem constructive Well, most of them anyway

    Lol, That would be considered spamming. Most of us don't and aren't leechers. But some people on this forum are leechers. If we get to many leechers then that would ruin this forum.

    No you would not be banned. You will get an infraction. Although if you already have 2 then you WILL be banned. And if those 10 posts were constructive and useful posts then you wouldn't. So just take your time on the forums read some tutorials and relax. Once you learn some more just start helping other members .

    u guys are awesome 100 % against spammers
    Yes we are awesome . But anyways, you do seem like a leecher since you have exactly 10 posts and haven't logged on since 1 week after you posted.

    Thanks,

    they should only allow regiesterd people post for techical or suggestion related....


    IE. no commenting on scripts like "OMFG! TY! I'VE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER FOR THIS!"


    so only stuff like.... "why you declear the player twice","you should add more forms, and improve on your proggie" and not "can't complie line xxxx..."


    am sick of seening new users posting COMPLETELY USELESS comments, so only srl member(/junior member) + can post comments, and if they wants to become junior members, they have to post ACTURAL useful stuff, and maby the post count requirements should also be increased, or atleast make the same applying thing as srl member for junior member..

    woot it's that mean me? well now a day you can properly judge which post was constructive and which is spamming but there is time for the changes but who will actually care for those spammer unless the domain owner. But people out there have to think twice again spamming over here will not benefit your actual life so get yourself out of here before anything else as RS was not benefit for real world money. Scripts was construct based on single character will benefit unless you try to auto on your main. So again think twice...

    I have to agree here
    I post quite alot within one hour, but it's not spam they are constructive and helpful comments / support.. If i were to post say 50 posts within one hour but ALL were constructive / helpful and appreciated would it be classed as spam? :S

    Many Thanks

    IMHO you should change the '10 post limit and 1 week' to something random, as in don't tell them So they don't say 'kk i have to get 10 post ASAP'

    You should make it like, random number between 15-30, and the waiting the week thing would be abolished.

    Or make it so they have to post 10 decent proggies of at least 30 minutes, in order to help scripters

    And if they have downloaded more than 50 sripts, but only posted one proggie, they get banned or soemthing :P D:

    It would be to hard for a bunch of the mods to patrol the forums checking to see if people are posting proggies.

    I'll try not to make this a spam post... I think people are just doing that to get their necessary 10 posts, this post being a case in point.
    I don't sign. For anything.

    Guilty! But you have to expect spam if you want to keep the '10 post requirement' thing going.

    I agree.

    But as said, when someone says that to be member you need to do 10 posts IT IS MOST OBVIOUS that new members will start spamming and this is not only because they want to download scripts, they also want to leanr (ok only a minor few )
    I joined SRL mainly because I want to learn something about programming and I won't be able to do so until I am a "True" member of SRL.

    Also, since I don't know anything about programming AT THE MOMENT, I can't really do intellegent post regarding feedback.

    Spamming has nothing to do with learning and neither does being a "true" member of SRL, once you understand the very basics (TUT Island?) the SRL Manual or SRL Wiki are great aids.

    @ Everybody who thinks the 10 posts will only cause spam
    Yes it will cause spam, but in many cases people who are willing to browse the forums and learn SCAR in that 7 day waiting period will get AT LEAST 10 questions and in that case feel free to post them. Post in moderation, don't join and make your 10 posts within 10 minutes (your asking to have your psot count zeroed). Yes we have to expect spam and yes people will post spam (like 25% of my posts), but if you do need to spam, spam in moderation two spending 3 minutes everyday making two thought out posts will get you into the Jr. Member section just like making 10 posts in 10 minutes except you won't have your post count zeroed.

    PS
    I like how all three of you above me have either 10 or 11 posts.

    You shouldn't be proud of being guilty of being a spammer. This will get your account suspended and your post count reset. Yes, there will be spam but those people won't get access to scripts so the 10 post requirement is still serving its purpose.

    So are we saying that people who post two constructive/helpful/notspam comments a day for a week and then quit are not considered leechers?
