Is anybody going to talk about why spamming is moderated in unranked games in the first place?

u can't get vio's in sandbox unless u HC pretty much.

Since the current admin didn't say it's a violation and the rules don't say it's a violation, I'm going to safely assume it's not a violation. Let's keep it that way

I made this thread for clarification to know if I can spam sandbox games in a non-strategical manner and not be violated for it.

You can kick people from future games. All I wanted to know is if the site mods are still enforcing this rule or not and the reply I got was a "So perhaps".

I think spamming shouldn't be moderated in sandbox at all, doesn't matter if the spamming is non-strategical, there's a bloody kick button

You can't kick people after the game starts but I see what you're getting at.

Anyway, I don't understand why you made this thread if all you're going to say is spam shouldn't be moderated in Sandbox. It's not in the Sandbox rules at the moment and the case you pulled up was three owners ago. If the site mods are going to enforce the spam rule in here in a certain way then it should be brought to their attention in the complaints forum.

>So perhaps

so there's no clarification?

From Cody:

"In unranked main lobby we give violations for severe cases. This would be like multiple screens of spam. Something similar might be useful for sandbox?

It's basically just so people can't completely derail a game."

So perhaps a rule that looks like this would be in order: "Severe spamming: filling up a game's screen with majority spam."

What do you think?

No fun allowed

I've PMed Cody about it.

According to the rules page it isn't a vio BUT according to the lore it is.
*CONFUSED*

The particular case in this thread was only OT'd to a note on the basis that the spam was strategical.

WHAT IF a sandbox game is spammed in a non-strategical way, IS IT A VIO OR NOT?

Sanctity says

I agree but why was someone given a spamming violation for a sandbox game then? Mind-boggling

Idk, probably site mod shenanigans. You should post in the complaints forum.

These are the site rules on spam:

Spamming
Repeatedly sending the same message and/or chat flooding. Includes vote spamming. In extreme cases, if someone has received ample warning, and gameplay is disrupted across several games, a violation may be given in unranked Main Lobby

Site Spam
Spamming on the lobby wall, a report wall, on a players wall, or through private messages.

Forum Spam

Creating duplicate threads, posting multiple threads in the wrong forum, post flooding, off-topic posts, and excessively bumping old threads. Minor offences can combine and lead to a violation.

Report Spam
Wasting our time by spamming the report section, abusing the report function, linking photoshopped/altered images in a report in order to attempt to apply a violation onto a user, or continuously posting useless reports. Includes commenting in reports after being asked to stop by a moderator. Reports will be filed for report spam by the moderators. If a user reports someone for it, they may receive a report spam violation.

Nothing specifically says spamming is or isn't enforced in Sandbox, and only the first rule listed is a game rule so we can assume the latter three are enforced.
