Spam Forum?
« on: October 25, 2008, 11:42:26 pm »
Hello there mods, have you guys every considered having a spam forum?  A place where us furs can mess around, or post topics which we think aren't important enough to have for the actual forums?  It could be a dumping ground for old topics, or a "treehouse" of sorts for members.

that'd be a good idea. But shouldn't this thread be in the suggestions box?

Maybe.  But could you please keep it here?
I want lots of mods to see this.

There's the Furry Lite forum which is pretty random at times

Furry Lite is rather dull, with spam, we could have endless fun, start random topics (all within the rules of course) play random games, say random things..it would be like summer camp all over again.


And of course, we would need a spame janitor *Tightens tie up*  I don't know who could possibly do that job...

Ah, you see? Perfect example of what spame would be like, fun, laughter, friends...Furry Lite is just about funny news stories.  I'm talking lots of fun with friends, no need to spell correctly, make stupid threads if you wanna, see? It's bliss.

The forum you suggest has been brought up in discussion before in the past. Here's an example:
http://forums.furtopia.org/index.php/topic,10968.0.html

Having a spam forum is just a waste of time, server resources, and adds another section that the staff have to watch over when we're already busy enough as it is. Benjamin's post in that thread pretty much hit the nail on the head so to speak.

It's true, if there ever was a spam forum the word games is it, anything happens there it's all random insanity carefully controled.
Kobuk is right though, the watchers and mods have a tough time looking over the threads and trying to keep everyone in line, I've tried patroling the forums in free timee just to see what it might be like to be a watcher and I realised that it's a tough job and a huge responsibility. I wouldn't want to do it, I'd epically fail.

I would suggest the games area for places to just have a good time.  All the mods/staff have enough on their plates without having to keep an eye on a forum that possibly would go astray very rapidly.

If you want fun and games I would strongly suggest the gaming section. :)
