I realize the Serious Discussion section isn't the most active section alive on these forums, and I seldom post news and debate threads myself. But that's never the less no excuse as to why you think you can come into my section and post one word responses like "n-bomb" "lulz" "agreed" and other such spam messages. Flaming is not allowed in Serious Discussion. Trolling is not allowed in Serious Discussion. You have at least 3 or 4 other places you are more than welcome to go to in order to act like a 5 year old on these forums that nobody will punish you for it.
But not my section. Even with the lack of activity, I still check this damn thing daily to make sure it stays neat and clean. So don't think you're going to be able to post nothing worth while in here with one-liners and racist jokes and expect not to have your post deleted. The only reason I haven't infracted anyone for their actions yet is because I have yet to make an announcement like this one that it is now abundantly clear that I will not tolerate douchebaggery on Serious Discussion. Jokes & laughs and melancholy are all generally welcome so long as it's in the context of being on topic. But if you spend the time flaming another member about how much of a moron they are for disagreeing with you, you're post will be deleted. And now that this announcement is up here, you will ALSO be infracted.
I like to consider this section the last bastion of hope for people who want serious discussion can go to in order to speak intellectually about world issues.
So TL;DR, spam will no longer be tolerated, and if I catch you spamming in my section, you will from this point forward also be infracted in addition to your post being deleted.
Thank you and have a nice day.
