Well, here\'s a thread about the two methods of dealing with spammers, I conducted research, and here is the info.

Method 1: The popular way (Scientific name: Hardus Populus)

Q: How is the method exploited?

A: The popular way is making a big deal out of a spammer, \"petitions\" are made, chaos is amok, etc. Thats what I have to say.

Method 2: The UN-POPULAR way (Scientific name: Easius wayus)

Q: How is the method exploited?

A: The Doc bans the spammer, isn\'t that enough?

Any more questions?

Unfortunately, I\'m a very negative person in general. I think it\'s great if a spammer can be reformed, and, I really do try to take it easy on them at first (if they\'re at all reasonable). But, if you have educated someone, told them what they\'re doing is wrong, and how to change their ways, and they ignore the advice... well... Some spammers are actually driven away when they know that they are unwanted... very few, but some... and then, after awhile, if they haven\'t left, the Doc intervenes.

Method 4: The complete idiots way (Idios Wayus)
Q: How is this exploited
A: Report the spammer\'s topic but DON\'T reply. That is what Tamer Brad on OtC said

Cyanide: polyatomic ion
Formula: CN
Charge: -1
Biological status: highly poison

Okay, that\'s directly from memory (I remember weird stuff from Chemistry class).

Anyways, there\'s still another way to deal with spammers.

Higher-level vocabulary way (Scientific name: Wordus maximus)
Q: How is the method exploited?
A: Everyone talks in words of no less than three syllabils, therefore causing spammers to become confused and, eventually, leading the explosion of said spammers head and thusly the end of spam.

That would probably be the best way of doing things. Of course, the more persistant of SPAMmers would most likely ask a thousand questions on what things mean. But that one I would go with. *Grabs Dictionary*

I like the idea of confusing them with words ver three syllables. (Post words like \"antidisestablishmentarianism\" to really have them perplexed:lol: )
