Question about posting.

Yes I am posting in the news help forum. Ok I was wondering when you post in the new posts it shows last posted by ba,ba,black,sheep for example. If you post in alot of them and it shows your name would that be considered spamming even though that your post is related to the thread?

In spammerland who cares, but in other threads It is not spamming unless you double post, but if you post everytime someone else post's then no its not spamming, so go ahead.

Ok thanks so I cant get banned because of that right?

If its like this for example:

You: (Hi)
You: (hi)
you: (Hi)
Then yes you will get a warning form the admins.
But if its like this

You: (hi)
Person: (hi whats up>)
You: (nothing you?)
Person: (bored)
You: (me too)

(ETC) then no you wont get banned.

Unless the posts are off-topic or of a nature better suited to private messaging

People call it spamming because it looks like your posting for your post count. But it's not hurting anyone as long as it follows the rules.

It CAN be a bit disturbing to see one person have the last post in like, 6 different threads, but it really isn't spamming so long as it relates to the topic.

Yeah, it does get obnoxious (T.King is my brother), but what's funny is that I pulled a similar stunt when I was new, and in both cases (mine and my brother's) none of the posts were actually spam.

If it doesn't get out of hand then it's ok

Like a conversation that anyone can join in on

Back in the day I've filled up Irrelevance I'm pretty sure. It's what all the cool kids do.
