Its not.

Meh, it's not like TET is a 5-star, quality-debating-skills, essay-only thread.
Hence, the very significance of "let's stop the declining quality of the thread" is very, VERY subjective and hence, irrelevant.
I'm not asking for "quality debating skills" or "essays only". I'm asking for no more spam. There is a difference.

Indeed. Just because Gren thinks it is spam, doesn't mean it is. One mans spam is another mans amusing post.
Its not just me. Also, pseudo RP BELONGS IN F7. NOT NSG. TET IS IN NSG, NOT F7. THEREFORE, PSEUDO RP DOES NOT BELONG IN TET. And greetspam has already been deemed to be spam by the mods.
What about these facts is so hard to understand?
Again, you can greet while positively contributing to the thread. See: CC's earlier post.
Have you not noticed that this place is getting spammier? Especially with regards to pseudo-RP?
I've been bored. And cold. And yes, you can ask that. I don't see where you'd get the idea you couldn't.

Well, the thing is, TET was made to serve NSG's chat needs, because it was determined by looking at how WHYLT played out that we did need our own chat thread, and that going to F7 wouldn't solve the issue. So I don't agree with taking TET out of NSG.
i disagree with a bit that you said this evening, but i agree with you there. F7 chat and nsg chat are different things.
Exactly.
The problem is that lately, said adaptations haven't really been happening. So we've got to make it clear what the norms and standards are.

It's basically just adapting to the people around you.
If all posters post in a style distinctive and different of your own, you'll try to fit in eventually.
The big problem is that so many people came in with a spammy style, and nobody made an attempt to correct it, so the new people and the ones that came after kept thinking it was ok.

Not really. A pseudo-RPer can currently say "I'm not spamming". My proposed solution makes it clear that pseudo RP is spam, and belongs in F7.
But, then again, you consider Pseudo-RPing to be spam. Sometimes, it can be spam (Example: 50 people *glomp*ing each other), but others, it could be interesting and even useful. Plus, TFR has kinda been filled with spam, which would be why we need TFR, TET, and TFW, to mediate between the Pseudo-RPers, the conversers, and the spammers.
In this subforum, it is spam. Maybe not in the Roo and other parts of F7. But it is here. NSG has different standards than F7. And make no mistake, TET, from its start, has been an NSG thread.

1. Its not spam. Its legitimate conversation that belongs on NSG.
2. No, I'm acting like a poster who doesn't like spam.
1. No, probably is just you complaining about an inane issue nobody takes serious grievances about.
2. You're acting like a poster who has an issue that you see, but I don't.
1. Its not just me. Its other posters, too. Nana has admitted at least one of my points is valid.
2. You don't see it because you came in here after the decline had already started.

No, it isn't.
