A92.... you just had to reply to that guy ..... FFS what does this do to bolster your new claim of maturity in a previous post?

alexzarach

DO NOT REPLY TO SPAM

It just sprung me as he said he was from my place of origin. How does it affect maturity in any way?

alexzarach

He's very opinionated-get used to it.

UglynGrey

Because responding to spam when you know better is impulsive and not typically a sign of maturity

In fact, it's the only real "rule" that seems to get pushed on these forums

anantha92

Ok, i apologize for my mistake.

alexzarach

anantha, how do you know he/she really was from where he/she claimed? The SPAM was done by a computer, and computers aren't born but made.

Q

Those notorious SPAM-names that used to get registered had totally fake "Locations": The machine just had a list of every country (Probably stolen from Wikipedia) and randomly picked one.

But the actual format is cleverly done-random letters are made hyperlinks.

Q

I was just attempting to get the point across that nothing a SPAMmer says when they're perpetrating their depravity can be believed true. Just because a SPAMmer happens to claim they live next door doesn't mean I'm going to open my window and start chewing them out.

I know that, I was raising a new point.

You replied to it as well.

alexzarach

I know, but once I person has replied, it doesn't matter. My reply was for anantha to remember for the future.
