Hey, why did Spam Catalogue get closed?
Well, alright, answer might seem obvious, but the other thread (aka What's your posts-per-months-registered ratio?) didn't seem to be getting lot of traffic and when I published the statistics the thread started to live again.

Also, the topic in itself isn't spam. Case in point: Some time ago, MarkG published similar statistic of who had biggest posts/per/month ratio, and administrators can't spam. I rest my case.

Well, I would think that the same poster starting two threads on the same subject might have something to do with it. Why don't you revive the original thread instead?

winston: Because then the people wouldn't check back in to get the warm fuzzy feeling people get when categorized! Besides, I like the name "Spam Catalogue".

If some thread needs to be closed, then close the original thread and let Spam Catalogue survive!

They're just 0's and 1's in an integrated electrical circuit anyway, so I propose closing both of them and get it over with.

Stefu, don't believe MtG there, they closed it because you are threatening the moderators collective manhood. Either that, or because you are ugly and smell bad. Or maybe the Illuminati made them do it. Could be they have a program for determining a daily random target for persecution. Damn, I think I burned out another thousand brain cells this morning; I am going to to get into my Lay-Z-Boy and drool for a while.

Who said admins can't spam? In many cases that's what they do with ease and success .
