Smukatele is Officially On Notice

[jawinn]

Smukatele has been sneaking around the forum attempting to find ways to artificially up his Acme Dollars. He has failed and because I had to write this up and delete some of his "spam test" posts I have penalized him by deducting Acme Dollars.

To quote the greatest movie villain of all time "Have no illusions, we are in charge." -Hans Gruber

And by "we" I mean me!

I knew it, it's okay, I would have done it, but seriously, I logged on at 6AM and he was all over this place. Glad to know that you're policing us jawinn.:D

I was quite frustrated at myself yesterday because that mf'er had the high score on minigolf 2. I knew I could beat him easily, but I kept messing up on 2 of the holes. I blamed him for me messing up the first couple of times. I have the high score though, so I'm pretty happy. Same thing with the Autobahn game.

Good job Jason!

Though I'm not quite sure why Brazzle says I "was all over the place" I only posted the tests in one spot.

And the one spot I tested was a private forum that does not spam the front page like Many Others are doing.

I was not sneaking either Jason, and I am highly offended that you would suggest I was! I did not hide what was being done, quite the opposite in fact, I made it extremely clear with statements such as "Blatant Spam test" in every single spam test i posted.

Oh and then there was the part where I wrote a note to Jason on one of the spam tests stating outright that this is a spam test and letting Jason know I know he'll see it and would like him to reset my dollars when he does. I did not hide what was being done...


The average quality of the posts on this forum have plummeted since the contest started. Not to far as Jason would delete them, but they have dropped nonetheless. This will be plainly obvious to any visitors as well. Most of the articles since the contest started are something along the lines of "What is your favorite shade of orange on an AEG muzzle?" If a new person comes and sees the forum for the last couple days they will NOT be impressed with the information being shown on the forums.

You can all thank me for pointing out the fallacies of a spam contest and having been properly chastised I shall not test it out again. :cool:

oh and Antix, you should never have warned me you caught my score....Your done now.

I like the site as everyone here does, but please people, do not become so obsessed with little prizes that you ruin what makes this a good board, the quality of its content.

Last thing. I did post one valid thread yesterday which seems to have been deleted. If that is my punishment then so be it, but keep in mind that the Site is the loser when actual useful posts are deleted, as the ratio of spam to useful posts is worsened. Quantity !> Quality

You keep thinking that you'll beat my high score on minigolf 2 and autobahn :P Whatever helps you sleep at night, man.

You may have temporarily caught me on minigolf 2, but I would appreciate some competition on Adventure Golf since that is where I spent the most time honing my skillz.

If this were British Parliament, I'd be standing up and shouting "Hear Hear!"

But, as this is America, I will just say, "Fuckin' A."
