Obviously I have just pulled a number out of my butt, but that's the one I chose, so there's probably a reason for that.

I would furthermore like to point out that I am feverish so may only be talking about a few people, and such a group may or may not include myself, especially when you take the day of the week into account.

You've got a point there AA. Merging NES and IOT would make the NESes a lot more spam filled. Think about that.

Maybe certain IOTers would be better off not spamming as much and maybe our esteemed mod will take steps towards cutting down the spam. An "IOT spams too much" argument against a NES/IOT merge can easily be solved by enforcing already standing board rules.

But I like spam.

DroopyTofu · May 14, 2012, 06:48 PM

That depends on how you define spam. Some conversations in IOT's may look like spam but are actually good for the gameplay. I don't know if that's the case about NES'es, but they seem to sound more serious.

Double A · May 14, 2012, 06:50 PM

To paraphrase Thorvald, my RP frequently blurs the line between OT and spam.

With an electric mixer.

Not necessarily. In NESing we do have a "While We Wait" thread for chatter that is NESing, but not specific game, related (well much of the time anyway

). It has cut down on in game spam. and if in game spam gets out of hand, I am perfectly capable of dealing with it. IIRC probably 95% of all NESing problems come in the WWW thread. But in spite of high emotions and cantankerous personalities, NESing is mostly problem free. IOTers would have to learn to adjust.

If a game mod has a problem with spamming, I am happy to delete posts and ask the offender to stop. If that is not sufficient, I can and will provide all expense paid tickets to "not here". Three, seven or fourteen day excursions are available.

I'm not much of a fan of infractions; if you cannot/will not respond appropriately when asked nicely, then you probably shouldn't be here anyway.

BSmith1068 · May 14, 2012, 08:05 PM

I would favor the game GM setting/managing the level of spam permisssble in their thread. If it gets out of hand or people don't respond to the GM's request to tone it down, then enforcement can follow.

Birdjaguar · May 14, 2012, 09:49 PM

^^^ Nothing wrong with that.

Double A · May 15, 2012, 04:54 AM

I feel like I should mention spam went down when we got a chatango.

Terrance888 · May 15, 2012, 07:15 AM

You guys can join us on NESchat.

. You can't imagine the stuff we talk about in there.

hoplitejoe · May 15, 2012, 08:13 AM

If only they had seen the things being posted last night. I will never see Squidward in the same light.

Mosher · May 15, 2012, 01:43 PM

Chatango gets really weird sometimes. Mostly due to me, but I digress.

Red_Spy · May 15, 2012, 03:03 PM

Our chat is just as weird if not more than yous probably. And it's not really Mosher, more all of us.

Mosher · May 15, 2012, 03:07 PM

I just have these days where I feel like filling the chat with random images off of /b/

SouthernKing · May 15, 2012, 03:16 PM

From my experience, #NES is wierder than the IOT chats. Then again, I haven't been on the later in some time.

Last night was horrific.

Red_Spy · May 15, 2012, 03:19 PM

Last night was awful. But the story changed my views on humanity, so I guess it was okay.

Yui108 · May 15, 2012, 03:32 PM

Yeah if anyone wants to get a feel for the NESing community, or at least a part of it, come on #nes.
