Spam does suck though. Find new games. You can't keep the same ones going for year after year. It gets too repetitive. Like Teller said keep spamfest going, ego contests, mafia, who killed robin hood, rap battles, even add some new events. Teach people not to spam mindlessly if it bothers you that much. Maybe even enforce new rules and a stricter warning system. And like I said, bring awareness to the forums with some community messages or even post something about the forums on the news bulletin.

well said. although i think we should fix our problems before bringing in new people. that would just add on to the already large workload atm.

That would be awesome :P but, we can't :(


Also, these spam games were made to be endless, its the lack of creativity for example in King of the Hill that killed it, I remember people used to post HUGE things that I would read half of, we would think outside the circle. Is it a crime to want that back?

I see where you're coming from. But you have to realize that things have changed and people now see spam as a way to effortlessly and blissfully waste time. They don't feel like writing huge things is fun. Change that.

Jake wonders how amazing it would be if someone posted on king of the hill and played with him.

I know how much better it used to be. I've done 'research'. I know about Rederoin and Shion and Kenny and Simmen and Lord Panawa and Evan and Kane and Alexander and Ponk and Tom and Apollo. And I must say, I would love to meet mrducky sometime. ;) But alas, I'm quite sick of hearing about how much better it was. Yes spam used to be amazing and now it sucks. Do something about it and stop complaining.

I agree with Jake and teller, spam is spam. Your still meant to stay on topic and play along, not just say random items.

I also agree with this. If we just discuss the past, we won't accomplish anything. Spamfest was fun, and we may very well need to do more events like it, just sitting around and be lazy never helped anyone.

I remember that as well. didn't Kenny have the longest post ever? A lot of the time we posted longer, and early on in KoTH we did that, and than we stopped again. King of the hill used to be a sort of RP, now its simple one line sentences which a 2 year old could think of.

Huge generalization. I would be more than happy to do ego contests and mafia every day.

this. both WKRH/mafia and ego contests are successful IF the host doesn't slack off (which is usually old spammers *cough* except duo)


Yes, but think of this. If we did Ego contest for no tokens, not many people would do it. for Spamfest, we offered tokens, we got a lot more players. Tokens aren't a bad thing, but if its the same person over and over, where will we end up? Im not saying you do it ONLY for tokens, but it adds a new edge. We used to not need tokens or post count, and just posted for fun.


WKRH was fun and exciting, and i think we should make more games like it, but they need to be original. We need original, non-repeated posts. Most of us have done this, like reviving the Ban game or KoTH, stuff like that. we need more games that are original and that we can have fun doing, not get all mad about reposting. Posting usually doesn't help, why don't YOU go and do it, and not have someone do it for you?

Done.
