Apparently the TOS for spam doesn't seem to apply if someone wants to get a ton of posts under their belt. :roll:

Spamming is not allowed here.

But another thing is everyone has their own view on spamming. What a person posts, another person may see it as spam while the mods do not.

I have very high post counts and you'd find that most of my posts are not spam and make alot of sense, but the only area that doesn't count in is in the "Off The Wall" part of the forum, there is literally no limits on spam, but its the other main board that matters.

Tim Tex seems to be able to get away with spamming. I don't think anyone cares as long as its related to the topic :roll:

I remember he hasn't said anything about his women issues ever since that incident. In fact I have noticed him less.

Those "count to a million" threads I class as spamming and saying "welcome to wp" 80 times in a row.
