Nabber

Artisanal Cheese Taster
Okay, this is starting to irk me. There are a bunch of users who come on here with the sole purpose of advertising their business or something they made. Often they make only one post or make one topic about said business/creation and don't do anything else. As I said, this is a bit of a pet peeve for me. Yes, they're not doing anything wrong, I guess, but still... it just bothers me and I wish they'd stop. If you're going to join the forum, please contribute to it.
 
How long do you allow them to post before you consider them eligible for ban?
 
buy nabber now, and buy one, get one '3K!

I'd guess most of them don't need to post. They put links to whatever they're advertising, usually, in their signatures and custom titles. Though I may be spectacularly wrong.

The ironic thing is that if they never post, they'll never be seen.
But what you said annoys me. This forum has enough users as it is. If you join, post!...
*sigh*

That's pretty much the case.
 
If we're talking about adbots they're banned on site and their posts are deleted.
 
Spambots, Shyguy, spambots.
 
That's pretty much the same thing, Yami. -_-

But yeah, those are just spambots/adbots and will be banned as soon as a mod sees them. Don't worry about it.
 
That 'user' is no human user, so talking to it has no use, besides having more work on typing.
