Ban emoji and BROKEN CAPSLOCK!?  Would you ban one of my best-ever threads, which I do plan to revive someday?  😰


Click, click, click the bestial daemon:


It is my one and only thread in Bounties (Altcoins).  Do I not deserve to spam spam spam, too?


[...]

Airdrop Bounty Shill Payola Terms:

In exchange for your participation in this campaign, you will receive 2256%* airdrop bounty spam payola consisting of pretty good privacy for yourself and those with whom you communicate.

(* All airdrop percentages herein stated apply the same quality of maths as seen in a typical scamcoin.)

[...]

Remember that the more you spam for the pro-PGP, pro-privacy message of this campaign, the more elite you will be!


That is art.  Please don’t tell me that you seriously want to deprive the world of such eloquent forms of expression.  😿

And please, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!  Have a heart for the poor, illiterate children (and by that, I mean: superannuated infants in adult bodies), who will be bereft of any means to communicate.  You authoritarian word-Nazi, would you force them to study and learn the proper use of language!? 😡




What I see:


The origin of the word “spam” in the context of Internet spam.

Eh...

I know that the OPs want to gather some attention for their topics but it make the whole section look messy and unprofessional.

As others have observed, that is a feature and not a bug.

Imo the presence of such stuff is an indicator to "avoid" and "report" me topics.

I quite like allowing icons and emojis in the topic title. [...] The icons allow me to see instantly which threads I should just avoid because they are likely to be nonsense, and it seems to be a pretty foolproof method.



what if someday your favorite sections would be inundated with those eye-catching titles? Why not prevent them at first?
I wouldn't worry too much about that. If that kind of behavior spilled over in to boards like Technical Discussion or Technical Support, you can pretty much guarantee they would be rapidly trashed.

😀😺🐺 👍 🎆 🎉!!!


On the other hand, if I could ban these idiotic pictograms from the Internet altogether...
