What? This does not at ALL vilate the rules as spam. It is just a forum game. 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?
Where does this break those rules? It just is a forum game, Not spam. It is something that everyone can contribute to. |

| Quote: | | Flooding is a type of spam categorized as the posting of a mass amount of similar topics in a particular forum. Flooding can be divided into two categories: single member flooding, and group flooding. Group flooding, also known as "bandwagon flooding", is when multiple members make a particular thread into a "fad", posting several similar topics of their own in forums outside the Off-Topic forum. Slight "bandwagoning" is acceptable in the Off-Topic forum, but not in General Discussion, or in any other forum. Single member flooding is not tolerable anywhere, including Off-Topic. |
now it should be an unwritten rule that flooding not only applies to topics but posts as well |

Nt if the posts are organized into a game.

This, it's just a harmless forum game. Nothing bad is coming out of it. Not Guilty. |

Because the people who striked you were dipshits and that's no excuse to try and make someone else suffer because someone made a mistake with you. |

I thought you weren't supposed to make fun of cd
and this post DOES break the flooding rule
if what you say is true then goron mask and everyone else that participated in spamquanzukuh shouldn't have been jailed, and also I could go into off-topic right now and make a topic called "forum game: SPAM AS MUCH AS YOU CAN" and not get in trouble |

Now someone is being literal. This post that was striked, it looks like a forum game, plays likie a forum game, feels like a forum game. The spamquazah did not look like a forum game, did not play like a forum game, did not feel like a forum game. My point is certain things can be forum games, others cannot. Don't be so extreme and literal about it. |

There's a difference between a fun forum game and a topic made only for spam. |
