You blame me for spam just because i copy+paste text through 2 different threads in forum.....

if you copy+paste the "Spam definition" text from above in other thread in forum... what will you be???? a spammer?

I know what i've done before is not good, but the admin's reaction was so inhospitable.....
("okay, you're seriously heading into spamming territory now. stop.").
Is this the best way you welcome new members feyd?
Truly rude!

Otherwise, is it better to say?:
"Welcome clearmind. Read the forum rules before you post..."

p.s
I'm a liar and i like it!!! I don't like the way you define the truth.
SO... ban me!!

No.

One rude action deserves an intelligent reaction. If the offender is basically in good faith, we should gently try to explain their error without making them feel unwelcome. If they are in bad faith, they deserve all they get. Don't ask me how you are supposed to discriminate. If in doubt, err on the side of caution.

This was spam but it's not the end of the world - 'nuff said. Please feel welcome to post again if you wish to, in good faith.
