Making more News Posts

Posted by Zombicidle - December 4th, 2010


If by any chance the account's news posts have been all used up and fresh news posts are needed to continue posting more images, you are welcome to make an extra news post or two to add on more content. If you want to make some spam blank news posts at first and then later add in the content you are allowed to do so. DO NOT EXCEED MORE THAN 10 BLANK NEWS POSTS. When making a spam news post, do not write gibberish or spam in it. Write something irrelevant or interesting or stupid so that it is not 100% pure spam. At least write one or two sentences in the body and a half-assed title on the top. You can also enable comments and then delete the posted comments (if any) when the images are being posted into the news post. You may also use a spam bot ONLY IF you need massive quantities of news posts (the number required must be greater than 20). If not then it must be spammed manually.

It is best to ask an administrator if you can run a spam bot (or spam manually) and/or just drop them a quick PM (send it to BOTH Tom and Wade since they handle most administrative tasks) that you're running a spam bot to make more news posts (so that they know you're doing it and the account isn't hacked and that you aren't doing it maliciously). Include the number of news posts being spammed, the length of the spam in days (divide the number of news posts you need by 20 and round the number to 2 decimal places) and the content that's going to be in those news posts. The maximum spam bot duration should not exceed 5 days (and even 5 days is pushing it). Also do not leave a bot overnight unless it doesn't cover the required amount of news posts. So if you need 5 news posts, don't leave a spam bot overnight for it will make like 22 news posts and that is trouble. We also do not want blank posts within the image archive - we want to keep them as low as possible for the least amount of time (as in we want to fill them in quickly).

Do not go overboard with making news posts. We don't want blank posts left behind. Any extra news posts left after filling in all the information (and there is currently no information to fill in) will be deleted - we're not leaving them in the image archive as a "jump start" for the next spamming spree. It's OK to make more spam posts than necessary as long as the excess spam posts have been deleted.

For every 10,000 images there should be 200-300 news posts, so there is a lot of room for plenty of images for small quantities of news posts. We shouldn't need to hit 1,000 news posts within the next year or so.
