Title: Hello Spammers?
Post by: Zer0 on 24/05/2021 20:14:19

This is a fair attempt at conversing with Spammers.

If Any of you Spammies do Notice this, Please join in for a short & brief healthy civilized conversation.

I simply wish to Understand the Logic behind Spam!

P.S. - Eagerly Awaiting Responses, Thank You!

🙄
ROFL!
🤭

I'm just amused by all this Spamming Nonsense!
(Donno Why)
🤷

Had a few Queries... I'd rather barf them all in here in this secluded quiet dark corner of the Forum.
(Here goes)
🤮

1) Does Spamming Really Help?
Even after the Google Penguin update?
🐧

2) Is it Really Worth the Time & Effort put in...Feasible?
I doubt They have made any sales out here.
🤔

3) Isn't Spamming extremely disappointing & depressing?
I mean, can You Imagine, doing it day after day without any positive results.
(I kinda feel sad & pity Spammers)
😑

4) Why do they Not move onto greener pastures, like Amazon, Alibaba, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc etc?

5) Could TNS turn Adversity into Opportunity, by providing a Sub - Section for Advertising?
Charging Them a $ or £ for each Ad OP per month?
(It would be soo much funn to scrutinize their Products, U know how Our Minds work in here, Right!)
🤭

6) Does Anybody else has similar feelings, like me, that these aren't actual spammers...rather just a bunch of prejudiced kidz who are high smokeen or simply here to cause abruptness due to religious, regional or other differences?
(They seem like X members who were Banned or Kicked Out)
🚷

7) Considering the Big Boss has access to Emails, He could possibly call a member directly thru Google Meet.
Hence...Would existing Registered members Not be comfortable if an additional layer of security & identification was imposed inorder to login...such as a Cell/Mobil/Phone number?
☎️

P.S. - Anyways, to Any & All Spammies who read this...
Life is Precious, Please Waste it as You Wish...But Y'all could do soo much Better than this.
✌️

1) Does Spamming Really Help?
Depends what you want it to do, but if it isn't deleted, yes it probably helps.

2) Is it Really Worth the Time & Effort put in...Feasible?
They're paid to do it, so it must be worth their time. I get advertisements on the radio for spamming services. They will spam for me.

3) Isn't Spamming extremely disappointing & depressing?
Why would you think that? Most of it is pretty automated. There's not a lot of emotions involved.

4) Why do they Not move onto greener pastures, like Amazon, Alibaba, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc etc?
It's banned in many of those places as well, and where it isn't, the spammers are there.

5) Could TNS turn Adversity into Opportunity, by providing a Sub - Section for Advertising?

Kind of defeats the purpose of being paid if you spend the payment. Then it would just be regular advertising, and the customer could do that directly and not hire the spammers.

6) Does Anybody else has similar feelings, like me, that these aren't actual spammers...rather just a bunch of prejudiced kidz who are high smokeen or simply here to cause abruptness due to religious, regional or other differences?
I doubt many of them are kids. Many are indeed ex-members since they need to create a new ID for every post.

7) Considering the Big Boss has access to Emails, He could possibly call a member directly thru Google Meet.
The emails are often as temporary as the userID. These guys have no desire for discussion, so I doubt the emails are monitored.

Then I'd be banned. I don't have one. I'm all for more stringent restrictions on new members. First 5 posts must be audited by mods before being visible. Our new member rate is low enough that I think we could keep up with that.

They don't read any posts. They're not here for that. They're here to make money. I'm not.

( Get your point, so it Pays! Just Wish they would/could have used that money into better designing their products, or even selling at discounted rates, might have been more Feasible)

(Doesn't make sense, If TNS could offer them a much lower rate than what the Spammies charge, then Why Not?)
But Yeaah! Spamsters have Alot of target website options so...hmm.

Sure, it might Not be Monetary gains, but everything in Life ain't bout commerce & economics.
Sometimes, knowing You made a positive difference & contributed is enough to bring inner peace, satisfaction & a lil smile.

I've Always Wondered, there are Soo Many Curious Guests always showing up on the Forum boards.
So Why the Heck do they not just Register & Login.

I recently heard that Most Guest Users are BOTS.

I wish to Understand a few things...

Who Owns these Bots?

Do the Creators/Owners of Bots use the Forum as a playground to Test them?

Are there any Monetary or Financial or Other benefits to the process?

P.S. - Thank You!
🙂

Who Owns these Bots?
Google, Microsoft, and other search engine providers.
Others as well, but that's a lot of them. Without them, how would google be able to find stuff so quickly when you do a search? It can't scan the whole web each time somebody googles 'xyzzy'.

Probably not. It is spammers that do the posting, and the bots are their target audience. We mods try to deprive them of that.

Quote
Are there any Monetary or Financial or Other benefits to the process?
Yes. There are whole companies that are paid to do nothing but this sort of things, driving traffic to their paying client's websites. I hear ads on the radio all the time for companies selling such services, promising increased revenue to their customers, like car dealerships and such.

But it's against the rules here, so we delete it as fast as we see it. There are other places where such content is not against the rules. This site just isn't one of them.

Edit: Shortly after I posted this, I see at the top of the page: Viewing this topic: Halc and 18 guests,. Now after posting this edit, I see 22 guests (bots).  I've seen sometimes over 50 of them at once.

MODS here are so Frank & Honest!

Sometimes i Wish y'all weren't as Transparent.

Thanks for that Detailed Explanation.

Anyways, now that i have your Attention in here...
Just one more Perplexing Mystery i would like to be resolved..

" Most Online Today: 547. Most Online Ever: 4928 (02/07/2019 21:27:59) "

What the Hell Heck happened on that Date?
Chris's birthday or wedding day?
Or was it some kind of perpetrated Attack on the Forum?

P.S. - i donno why i keep asking stuff which is irrelevant...pfft!
😔

Edit - Strike Offs!
lol
Please don't let my words get in my way of Knowing things, someone Kindly Please explain, Thanks!

bots mostly do spamming

Then the Ones who Own/Code/Control the Bots are kinda Foolish!

Because Spamming Never Ever works out on this Forum.
They just Waste their Time/Energy/Resources.

P.S. - Why try to repeatedly keep spitting up at the sky, hoping it would reach the stars, when you already know it's only gonna come back & land on your face.
