What is spam? Many players, including myself, have spammed one point or another. I'm sure even a Super Mod has spammed before. But hey, we learn from our mistakes! This will make ALL the Mods jobs easier. As I member, we should all be helpign the moderators out!

Type of Spam?

Emote Spam: This is where you creat a post with nothing but emotes.
Nonsense Spam: This is where you make a post that doesn't make sense. Example: "usdfb weofh nalufh"
Posts that are made in Languages other than English: Outside of the sections made for other languages, these posts are counted as spam.
Irrelevant posts: These are posts that have nothing to do with the thread in question. (This includes hijacking someone else's thread)
Short answer posts: Posts that are less than 1 sentence long. For example: saying thank you, I love you, or posting something that consists of less than 5 words.
Spamming for credits: Posting just for the sake of getting credits is counted as spam.
Posting pictures, links and/or videos: Outside of the Chat Zone, if the video/picture/link is not relevant to the thread, it is counted as spam.
Repeating a post: Posting something that someone else has posted before you.
Necro-posting: Bad enough to get a rule on it's own, however it is still a form of spamming, no matter how relevant the topic is. Exclusions for this would be threads in the off-topic section. (Necro-posting is posting on a thread that hasn't been posted in for a few weeks)
Polls: Voting in a poll without giving reasons for your vote can be counted as a form of spam.
Hiding: If you hide teh main point of a thread just to keep it bumped, this is counted as spamming. Jus let it sink, if you want it to stay alive, ask a Mod to bump it!

All of these Types of spam will be deleted. To help the Mods out, click teh report button at the buttom right hand corner of each post.

what do you mean with this one?

I'll answer your question:

Hidden content will be shown only to user with 40000 credit and above.

You can't see above right?

Since I answered your question and you can't see it, it is spam

I actually said:

I mean by, If I do this, it is spam. This is becasue you can't see what I'm saying. This is spam because it's the main point of what I'm saying.

Voting in a poll without a reason is more necro-spamming (and an annoyance) if it's done with a bunch of old topics. But if they do not post you cannot tell who did it.  

PS: Hiding option is not always spam. Sometimes people make posts with hiding option to avoid the general public from seeing something and making it only for higher ranks or Moderators. Admins and Super Mods can see any hidden thing. Only those topics like you mentioned where the author made it just to force people to post and see the hidden stuff can cause spam. ;) But for those topics the author does not set credits. They set it as "Content will shown upon replying." so any rank can view only after they post.
