Definitions:
- Spamming
The act of posting a single reply and/or multiple replies that do not contribute to the topic. It is also considered spamming with posts that contain only several words with the motive of increasing post count, posts having little or no relevance to the thread's subject discussion are SPAM.
- Flamming
Attacking another member and/or singling them out using offensive language, derogatory terms or general rudeness.
- Brief Posting
Posts that are not necessarily spam, but they may not be elaborate enough to be passed off as a useful, legitimate post. To consider a post "brief" or "vague", they usually contain 4 or less words, such as "Thanks a lot", "I agree", or "I like it".
- Trolling
Obscene messages that may have no significant relevance to any discussion that could also relate to spam. Also involves the "hit-and-run" posts.
- Necroposting
The act of reviving a thread considered dead. A thread is considered dead when there hasn't been any new posts within weeks/months/years since the last post. Unless your reply is relevant to the dead thread, don't do it.
- Bumping
Purposely bringing back up an old thread in an attempt to attract the attention of other users browsing the forum. Bumping can be considered useful if for example, you're updating the community on the progress of your game and you were the last previous poster.
