    Angry Spam posts..

    I've seen a few of these spam posts around, such as
    http://winsource.com/forum/introduct...al-de-dos.html
    and
    http://winsource.com/forum/introduct...k-zgc-jbt.html

    It's annoying how they're spamming a nice community which has been started here.
    Will these peoples accounts count towards the lumia contest?

    No, spam posts are disallowed! Don't worry, robots usually can't use phones!

    The quality of posters will be evaluated by mods. So it's really up to how nice the mods are.

    The contest clearly says Spammers will not win, and since none of those spam posts are coherent, I wouldn't be worried about it

    It's easy to tell helpful, insightful comments! You clearly aren't a robot, but we can test. Can you cry with tears of emotion?

    We've been fighting the spammers tooth and nail to try and help keep the boards free of spam. That being said, no, these accounts will not be entered into the contest. We know who is playing naughty and who is playing nice.

    Lol i like the "We know who is playing naughty and who is playing nice." part you said. Spammers do suck and i'm glad the Staff keep a good track of it, i wish the best of luck with fighting them, i used to own a forum and spam was the biggest issue for battling.

    I'd always be willing to police the forums with a flag button!
