I was going through the forum rules found @ general-forum-rules-read-first-t33 again and my attention was caught by item 2 which says:

2. NO SPAM! Spamming will only get you banned - For all eternity!

That sounds like a threat, right? Is spamming such a gruesome act that invokes a judgement as fatal as eternal condemnation? What is a spam? Who is a spammer? Can you spam unintentionally? What are the negative effects of spamming on a well organised online community such as the one we got here?

Well, I just banned a user right now for spamming. What did she do? I will narate. She (supposedly female) registered today and immediately started sending PM to every member inviting them for fraudulent sexual relationship. We do not encourage that here. She got banned due to her intentional act.

However, you could unintentionally spam too when you intrude on others' privacy.
In your opinion, what does spamming entail as a major problem of online communities?

In addition, here are few ways you could intentionally or unintentionally spam:
1. Multiple posting of same topic in several sections (Littering)
2. Posting the wrong topic in the wrong place (If unsure where your intended posts belong, post into general discussions forum)
3. Posting in all CAPITAL LETTERS (Uppercase), equivalent to shouting.
4. And more ways by which can disorganise the perfect decorum of our community and possibly intrude on others' serenity.
Good luck and don't get banned.
