Discuss anything and spam forum

[Wootzeh]

Can someone please explain the difference to me?
Discuss anything is a place for posts that don't have any other forum, yet so is the spam forum. Just wondering because I got banned for spamming the spam forum with pointless threads

Originally, the Discuss Anything forum had a mixture of posts from fashion, pets to food and holidays. Now that they have their own forums it has very little use, other than a more meaningful spam forum.

1 difference: discuss anything has post counts, spam doesn't

[jackass]

Discuss anything is used for threads which don't fit other categories, but still have a use of discussion in them, unlike spam which is just anything.

So why did I get banned for 4days for spamming pointless threads? =]

Ban reasons are not discussed on the forum so obviously, I cannot go into detail although I'd like to refer you to this thread:

By spam we mean pointless posts and topics, for example threads which have no meaning, i.e. links to youtube videos, lyrics to the song you are listening to or something along those lines, not a load of threads called 'af;aior;puifasdfdf' and 20 posts in a row with 'dfdfkerujiasdfhnasdf' . It is also not allowed to create loads of threads in a row, causing threads on ''New Posts'' which have a decent use to it to go to page 2.

I tend to post their when I'm looking for a serious answer, not a image of a random face.

Discuss Anything = Spam


Some threads, none of which are closed at time of posting, guess which is from which forum:

"think of something quick i can have for dinner"
"Test..."
"OMG!"

All threads in discuss anything in the last 2 weeks

Technically threads in discuss anything shouldn't go massively off topic whereas in spam anyone is free to "take over" a thread with nonsense if they really so wish. Although with the wonderful off topic rule stating that as long as it logically follows from a previous post it's ok, that goes out the window pretty much

why is it worth a 4day ban and not a caution?
