Missed that. Still doesn't make you innocent, of course. |

Replying jokingly to a thread title which in reality has nothing to do with the topic at hand is considered outright spam? |

When said topic is a sticky. It doesn't matter if it's Off Topic, it's still a Sticky. |

Ridiculous. Are you implying that joking is illegal outside of Off Topic? |

No, but you're supposed to remain on topic in stickys, not on topic title. |

| The Rules wrote: | Spam is characterized by short posts lacking depth or substance. Posts that consist of intentional poor grammar and incoherence and/or do not relate to the topic of the thread are considered spam, as well as short posts outside of the Off-Topic forums that may or may not relate to the topic, consisting of 1-3 words only. The posting of random images, either in a thread created by the offender or in another thread, is considered spam. Posting a large amount of emoticons without much substance in one's post is also considered spam. If one posts very large images that may cause some computers problems, one must put a warning in the thread title. Intentional page stretching for annoyance purposes, however, can be categorized as spam. Thread de-railing is spam. Unintentional grammar that is extremely poor is also spam. Posting in a topic for the sole purpose of saying that the subject is "old" is forbidden.
"Quote pyramids", or "quote posts"- quoting without adding anything else to it, or very little content- are also considered spam. Posting topics in the wrong forums is also against the rules- for instance, although it is alright to be in-character as the character your username or avatar suggest you are, in-depth role-playing topics should be kept to the role-playing forums. Also, if a thread breaks the rules, do not post "inb4lok" or "NECROPOST!!!". Instead, report the post; the moderation team will handle the problem.
Shouting out the word "MODPLOT" in the times of a site event is strictly prohibited, for it ruins the fun of other members who would like to play along, or the planners of the event who worked hard to bring it to you. Most of the time, you don't have to participate in the plot, so why ruin it for those who do want to participate? |
Scan that over. This is not an infringement. |

Isn't this sticky an abuse of mod powers =>?
I mean I understand you are making a point to "cut it out" but does It justify a sticky? |

...I agree with Moi on this one...
...sorry for joining so late, didn't notice there were new topics in Court...
...It did say any obstruction of the topic's purpose is spam...
...yes, it was a joke, but it still was pointless, you should have added to the topic...
...+1 for guilty...

A normal topic wouldn't get it across, nor would a PM. That's where Stickies come in. |
