The same way other mods adverstise, namely some method that does not involve game developers and lobby mods constantly spamming annoying crap.

Really I see very little propaganda from any mod beside on main or on the forums, but I bet that most players dont read the forums (only the smarter ones :) ) what makes it a bit unnefective...

But the spam in #main is annoying.

That said, I couldn't care less about #main, I never read it anyways unless I'm drunk.

Nothing is perfect :) We could try to find other places to place mod adds tough... Loadscreens? :)

Google Ads?

They're surprisingly cheap. If you put Google Ads on http://www.caspring.com and encouraged people to visit there more often, you could buy some focused advertising on Google Ads with the revenue. They even offer a payment option where you pay per click on your ad, which I assume is what Spring games would want.

[Jamuk426]

Do any of your conversations ever get interrupted by CA advertisements? Or do you just not like to see stuff about CA in the main?

I've only ever seen CA ads when no one was talking, but if you have experienced otherwise, say so. That is the only way you can prove that they are causing problems by advertising.

If you just don't like reading it, then put them on ignore and stop making a big fuss about it, because I don't want to have to put you on ignore .

[KingRaptor]

I don't even particularly like the #main spam myself, but this line of reasoning is total BS.

I find it actually cruel to shove this down newcomer's throats. Let them play what they want to play, try what they want to try. Not be basically forced into CA.

You could say "Advertising isn't forcing", But the way they've been doing it, and at the rate, it really is.

How many people have suffered physical or property damage due to CA spam? How many have been muted or banned in lobby for criticizing or refusing to play CA? Which of the most popular maps work exclusively with CA? TV and radio routinely run the exact same ads for weeks, has this ever been labeled as forcing?

Also, I don't see any threads complaining about the "join DSD/tabula/speedmetal/etc." spam that has been going on since time immemorial, shall I question if the reason you're complaining about #main spam is because you have an axe to grind against CA?

[Forboding Angel]

It just shows the need for more ways to advertise via the Lobby. #main spam is annoying, I must agree. If I have a game of evo up, I will generally only hit main when the last link has been long gone ^^ or a long time period has passed.

I would prefer not to feel the need to put any linkage in main tho. Mebbie that's jsut me.

Then you dont chat much at #main.

Ive got interrupted many times by CA spam, and he just keeped repeating it like it was some sort of bot just to annoy us o_O

If you just don't like reading it, then put them on ignore and stop making a big fuss about it, because I don't want to have to put you on ignore .

Thats not a solution, i dont want to miss any messages (only CA spam), or it would look confusing when people are replying at his messages which i cant see, or replying to my messages.

at least my messages are most of the time related to the current chat, when your spam just pops up nowhere repeating the same shit every day.

i cant understand how you can call these simple words as a spam, like i couldnt reply to someones message with short words like "yeah" or "no" etc.

Edit: If i repeated every day "Join in the X belief, or else you will die in hell! join now and get forever life in the heaven! Get free ticket from http://heaven.com !"
That would piss people off as much as CA spam.

Edit2: Yeah? i chat a lot, you SPAM a lot. spamming means when you repeat same messages over and over again.

Dont try to make this into a personal fight when its not.
