I'm just curious to as if it's spamming if I answer in short sentences. Can someone please help?

That depends on your answers, really. If topical to the discussion, then no. If we're to put a word limit on 'how much one must post to be an acceptable answer', we may as well ban the entire forum right now. Use your best judgment.

For some clarity the following is the post that prompted him to ask the question:

By giving a series of low-content posts (including short, empty responses to comments not directed at you to begin with), you're essentially spamming the thread. That detracts from the conversation, and I think I speak for a few people when I say that we'd appreciate it if you stopped.

Basically he was giving short (including some one word) response to essentially every post as if they had been addressed specifically to him.


And when it's pointed out to him, this was his response:

If someone is kind enough to gently pull you aside and explain why your behavior is making you look foolish, it would probably be best for you to take a breather and re-evaluate your approach instead of doubling down.

Don't give a damn.

These records are too old to be affirmitive. If you can provide a religious source, it would be a bit more believable.


Also see the other posts he made in the thread.

Thinly disguised trolling trying to pass off as stupidity.

A lot of the "arguments" he gives are totally non-sequitur and it seems he deliberately ignores proof and people that question his "beliefs".

Might not be spam, but it's surely trolling.

Forumbanned for a week.

It's going on your record if you don't stop spamming this forum with useless questions. Check the stickied threads at the top of this forum, check the One Stop Rules Shop, and stop using puppets to spread out the spam.
