What is spamming?
Spamming is something that annoys other people. For example, you keep on sending messages or you just send short messages. Sometimes repeating what you just said.

Why spam?
Sometimes, people just don't know what spamming is, or don't know the rules. Just like JustMe24, he's young and hasn't read the rules yet. Sometimes people are just bored and sometimes they're bots. Sometimes they are desperate and want a lot of credits and posts.

How do we know if we are spamming?
  • Spamming is double-posting or triple-posting, etc. You should make sure you use edit instead of posting a million times.
  • 1-2 words are also spamming, so make sure you have more than 2 words in your post/reply.
  • Going off topic is usual. To stop Going off topic, make sure you read the main thread and make sure your post is related to the thread.
*Not part of the tutorial:
Where is the EDIT button?
It is found near Quote, Multi and Quick... It is the first button to be seen in the bottom of a post or reply...*

How can we stop spamming?
*Written on the "HOW DO WE KNOW IF WE ARE SPAMMING?"*. You have to read your main reply to know and make sure.
-Make sure you are in the correct thread you want to reply at... Specially if you want to reply to a CPC forum game... You may click the wrong game and accidentally go off topic!

What should I do if someone is spamming?
Just report them, after reporting, just continue what you are doing. Don't use the "THAT'S A SPAM! REPORTED!" line when you are posting a reply, because you may just doing that as an excuse just to earn credits...

NEW part:
What is double-posting?
Double-posting is posting 2 times in a row. An example of this is:
User1: *thread*
User2: Nice thread, User1!
User2: I forgot to say I rated it 5/5! <---Don't do that please

And many users are mistaken for thinking that this is double-posting:
User1: *thread*
User2: Cool thread User1!
User1: Thanks User2!!! *message*
User3: You double-posted User1!!! <------ Nope, that was not double-posting
For all new people out there, that wasn't double-posting. It's just posting. Double-Posting is posting in a ROW.

Bots
What are bots?
Bots are not people. They are usually just computers, they are like viruses but they are different.

How do we know if it's a bot?
Bots are usually advertising and are very annoying. Sometimes their names are very rare or weird. Like "Reflowchina" or some letters that you wouldn't understand. (Reflowchina is a bot...)
-Sometimes they even use different languages!

What should I do if I see a bot?
Report them, just like what you do to spammers. So after reporting, just continue. And don't use the "REPORTED" line again plz

Reporting

How do I report someone?
There is a button for reporting a certain person. It is near the "Online/Offline status"

What or who should I report?
Spammers, bots and all those other rule breakers. Make sure you have a good reason to report that person.

New part:

Credit excuses:

Using "That's a spam! Reported!" or "Request to be locked" is something like a credit excuse... You may write "Close" meaning "Topic closed"... It's not like a credit excuse... As it is just one word... Or just tell a mod about it! Not posting is much better!


EDIT:

Bumping topics
Please don't bump topics that are already old.... It's just like a credit excuse... Bumping topics is like an excuse to earn credits too! And don't use the REQUEST TO BE LOCKED on old topics.... And you know the reason why, right???

That's all and welcome to CLUB PENGUIN CHEAT or CPC!!!
Read the rules too^^

EDIT:

VM rules

Don't VM people for unnecessary things, no cussing, no harassment, etc... Maybe just talk... And double-posting or triple-posting in other people's profiles is okay... Because you're just talking... It's not illegal.... E.g.:

Mmai's profile
User1: Oh kk I gtg too ^^
User1: Yeah I know I'm bored too
User1: Okay cool don't worry!
User1: Hey did you hear about the new sig shop?
User1: HEHEHE ^^ NP
User1: Really? That's cool! Congrats!!!
User1: LOL same here! I gtg now
User1: Hi what's up??? and good morning!
User2: OMG You octuple/triple/multiple-posted!!! That's against the rules<-- nope, that's legal... If you just used the edit button instead of VM'ing a person again, then they wouldn't get a notice.... So it's legal... Don't worry ^^
nice post because most people dont know what a bot is they just go 'stop spamming and posting link stopy going off topic and yada yada yada

That's not much important, it can go either with a comma or without one
