I've spent a lot of time attempting to inform people of the guidelines for congratulations for people. Repeatedly, I have said that the lowest denomination we congratulate for is 666 Posts. Then in thousands and four or five of a kind totals.

Keep at it, Coop. We'll eventually get there. If these kind of users persist in posting invalid achievements, perhaps we should start PMing them with the achievement requisites. It just seems to me that they post, but don't read what anyone but the poster above them has said.

Just a few examples, but I feel that the whole situation is descending into something that certain NG members are attempting to ruin for those of us who actually enjoy making lists and frequenting the Lounge.

To be honest, I think the bulk of users spamming the LUL have given up. The odd few left are probably just those who don't pay attention to the guidelines, or are morons who have no lives. Don't let the whole thing destroy the mood of the LUL for you, as there's still loads of us here who want to have fun WITHOUT pissing everyone off.

Yes I'm am now a Police Officer.

Guess normal doesn't count as a level up?

Well if you mean whistle then I think it could because if you've just come out of very very low Garbage whistle and you feel that it's an acheivment.

I still think that whole mass garbage whistle thing was funny as fuck.

But it's just annoying to see all those spam posts by certain users "celebrating" their non-achivements.

Yeah those last 2 pages went by fast. I missed writing my list on the 2,000th page, though, but at least I got a post in.

Yeah, it's ncie to actually hit the memorable page, isn't it?

Mistel, sorry :P I was using the quotes as an example, for a PM, but was feeling sleepy, so fucked up.

Sounds like something similar to the Standard Moron Response Message (SMRM) developed for use in the English Gentleman's Club. I'll have a think about seriously sending a PM like that to offenders, as it's really not something that we need to keep harassing mods about, so long as people realise what they shouldn't be posting about in the lounge here.

Yeah, I know what you mean. In fairness, they have every right to be happy in themselves with whatever shitty little achievement they make, it's just when they start posting them in here that it gets annoying.

At 11/26/07 08:42 AM, Coop83 wrote: Yeah, it's ncie to actually hit the memorable page, isn't it?

You're not wrong. I was looking over some older pages of the LUL yesterday. I was trying to find my first post here, but I couldn't remember what page it was on, and sadly it eluded me. I saw posts by you going waaaay back though, Coop! It's a great achievement in itself that you're still here after all this time. And we wouldn't have it any other way.

I think that's a smart move, and will probably be much more effective in weeding out the actual spammers as opposed to the users who simply don't pay attention.

I'm with you there. There haven't been so much garbage posted here for the last few days like how it was the other week.

It must have been some poorly coordinated spam attack by a handful of lower-level users. Ultimately, though, they completely failed, because we're still here making lists on page 2,000+, and they gave up a while ago.

post that in the level up lounge but i'm in the top 1500 YAY!

welp, last night I made it to 14,000 posts and my saves reached 1337

so now I will discontinue saving and blamming for the look of it until I get bored of both being 1337

Changed my aura due to the equal B/P and all.

I actually like my aura to reflect my B/Ping, so for a few years i had a Dark aura and then this past year my saves passed my blams and I had a light aura, and when my blams passed my saves I went back to dark.

This is the first time I've had a neutral.

Thanks to all who congratulated me the other day when I leveled up and my blams hit 1337!

Well I have over 9,000 B/P points now!

I used to like my aura to reflect by B/P points, too, but until the last clock day went by, my blams had ALWAYS been higher than my saves, so I'd always been evil (or dark under the old 3 aura system). I kinda got used to that. I changed it to light recently, but got bored quickly. I'm liking dark right now, though, but I think it will change with each new level. It's all about what looks good.
