Ok, I'm not trying to spam by asking this, and I guess the best proof is that I started this thread rather than continuing the discussion on the thread on which it originated...
Anyway, different communities seem to have different definitions of this, so what's the CC community think? What qualifies as "spam"? Particularly in the context of an off-topic forum...

Well, IMO, Spam is just posting mainly to increase your post count or for no purpose whatsoever. The CCBBC page I felt kinda got like that with all the random posts. Also, just random 1 word posts or stuff like that I feel is kind of spam too, but this is just me.

well, I suppose it's mainly just 1 word posts or 1 letter posts, etc. that I'd call spam. The 'no purpose whatsoever' I suppose was kind of too general.

Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam!
When people start that thing where the first person posts A, then the next person posts B, then others can't resist keeping going until someone simply posts "no."
