Spam
From Hattrick
Spam in Hattrick has two definitions:
- A posting in a Conference thread or a guestbook for no apparent purpose beyond increasing the post count of the thread or guestbook, or to draw people to respond to the writer's guestbook.
- A posting repeated in numerous conference threads designed to elicit responses back to another thread, or a website.
Is it really evil or only fun for some of users? Or maybe it is a way of self-expression, like graffitti? There is a fine line between art and spam.
Guestbook spam
Common GB spam includes:
- Advertations for Federations.
- People asking for friendly's (usually in small HT-countries).
- Several kinds of wishes (Including the "Greeting from X")
Note: Many of these kinds of spam are not strickly forbidden, but users might get punished when posting to much of these messages.
Another (and not forbidden kind!!) of spam is pointless small talk.
Some users try to collect as many messages as possible in their guestbook.
See: List of largest Guestbooks.
