For new users that don't know what spam is
Posted: Sat Nov 08, 2014 2:42 pm
Have you ever noticed, that there has never been a what is spam topic for all of those people that don't know what spam is, when I started SMBXing in 2009, I had no clue what spam was so I got banned from it during 2010 in knux's forums.
The definition of spam:
Electronic spamming is the use of electronic messaging systems to send unsolicited messages (spam), especially advertising. As well as sending messages repeatedly on the same site. While the most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam, the term is applied to similar abuses in other media: instant messaging spam, Usenet newsgroup spam, Web search engine spam, spam in blogs, wiki spam, online classified ads spam, mobile phone messaging spam, Internet forum spam, junk fax transmissions, social spam, television advertising and file sharing spam.
Spamming remains economically viable because advertisers have no operating costs beyond the management of their mailing lists, and it is difficult to hold senders accountable for their mass mailings. Because the barrier to entry is so low, spammers are numerous, and the volume of unsolicited mail has become very high. In the year 2011, the estimated figure for spam messages is around seven trillion. The costs, such as lost productivity and fraud, are borne by the public and by Internet service providers, which have been forced to add extra capacity to cope with the deluge. Spamming has been the subject of legislation in many jurisdictions.
A person who creates electronic spam is called a spammer.
If you don't understand that:
Spam is basically, allot of useless messages that are a waste of time to read or write.
Don't lock this because you might not know it but too many people out there do not even know that spam exists but still do it!
