What defines spamming ASCII art?
I posted a facepalm in a thread and several people quoted it and then I got a warning over this.
Not complaining, just wanting to know what not to do.

It just gets in the way and doesn't add anything. I got banned for the same exact thing once.

And all ASCII art is considered spam. Other than smilies.

ASCII art is just a picture made up of text characters, like the facepalm copypasta. It's spam, and really annoying, so that's probably why you got warned for it.

Any of it.

And mildly surprised you only got a warning. Stuff like that is pretty much the definition of spamming the forums.

Who the hell do you think I am?

I'm sorry, can someone please tell me what ASCII art is?

  • 01.19.2012 6:41 PM PDT

Key

If its 1-3 characters, you're good. After 3, stop.


Edit: Don't draw dicks, just cause its 3 or fewer characters. =___=

Adding a smiley on the end of a post isn't a problem, but when you start drawing pictures then you get in trouble.

Ok, then, thnkx.

Yes, there're too many numbers in my name.

The art is essentially only trying to send one message, and it's taking up far more space than it would to simply type the message.

And if it were allowed, I'm sure it'd be used on a regular basis, making it extremely annoying to see after a short time.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

That is funny because my last ban was 3 years ago for quoting a face palm.
