I'm going to move this allowable spam to the iPhone/iTouch Gaming section of the forums.

[The Liberator]

The fact that this is blatantly spam, and obviously by a spam-bot, and not a real person, is making me think. Will this sub-forum come to a point where nearly all of is is just spam-bots and whatever else trying to sell their product? I seriously hope not. Should spam-bots' posts of iPhone and iPod Touch games even be allowed on here?

Liberator.

Also, as a side not did not tower defense arise from the Real-time-strategy genre (maybe specifically in WCIII)?

This thread is specifically about games, as are these forums. We have an iPhone forum that fits this thread to a T. It's not abandonwarez, pirated or in any other way illegal. We allow other members to spam their own games, why not this guy?

That is a blatant lie Realmaze3D! I would never Realmaze3D spam my own game, and I never have Realmaze3D spammed my own game, and Realmaze3D you know it Realmaze3D!

Is that even supposed to make any sense?

I just think that when a spam-bot is allowed to keep their post, it is overstepping the mark. It turns from a sub-forum where it is about iPhone and iPod Touch games, and people showing their games off, to just spam. I think that is just going too far.

Yes. Read the first post. Now read charmin's post. See?

Where is your proof that this is a spam bot? There are things behind the scenes that make it nearly impossible for a bot to make any sense of the registration process.

I would also assume Hiroshi's real. Okay, the post is somewhat rather very spammy but it makes sense (taking into account that the company he's spamming for is Japanese, even the Engrish makes sense).

[The Liberator]

Yeah, I do agree with you tBC. As Janichsan said, it initially stank very strongly of spam for me. I guess I am not experienced enough (or something) to know the fine line between proper spam and a very curiously spam like, yet completely authentic and legitimate post.

Well one important thing to take into consideration is if it is relevant to the forums, and it is very much relevant to games and the iPhone/iTouch. Also is this post helpful and informational to the users? I believe it is, and that folks here would likely click the link and check it out. I did, to see if it was authentic, I believe others with the right hardware for the game would too. Yes, it's spam. It is very much spam and it would have been nice if the guy contacted us first but he didn't. He didn't make any points with me but I'm not going to make you guys suffer for that.

Really? Hmm, how odd. Now I'm nervous...it must be a trap of some kind....

--Eric

[the Battle Cat]

I have much better ways to make you suffer.

Okay, I see. Thanks for that.

I was wondering how we got jinxed... now I found the post!

By which you mean all of those spammers on the Strategy subforum? I was wondering why nearly all spammers go there, I do not understand it.

Liberator.

[the Battle Cat]

All of this is now a moot point, we are now officially spammers heaven. Better buckle your seat belts, or find a forum that can ban them.

[Janichsan]

What the hell happened? Did Bernie leave the door unlocked again?

[The Liberator]

Not only unlocked, I think he also put up the sign saying free spamming here
