Man, you should have instantly known it was a dream, with the laws of physics coming that far into question. | ||

Some news articles are almost like LR threads, Liquid signs a Dota 2 team and everyone just wants to scream in excitement, so yeah, the thread will get a lot of "Hell yeah"'s and similar posts, but it's just not a thread made to really have a deep and meaningfull discussion. Making one liners or other low content posts always a bannable offense would really kill the emotion of that kind of news and things would be rather bland in my opinion. The real issue is when people never contribute anything meaningfull, but then each case has to be individually looked into. It's ussually not that hard to see when someone does nothing but spam.

It seems he was just being ironic. Something like "insert one liner to compliment the content of the article." | ||

Don't worry be happy ~~~~~~ It doesn't cut to my core or anything, nor do lose sleep or rage at this style of posting. I was just making an, albeit poor, attempt at hyperbole. To more directly answer your question, I would argue that the point of a forum, rather than chat, is to discuss as opposed to respond in short form (LR threads aside it would seem). I don't think it should be an instant ban but I would say it falls under the broader umbrella of low quality posting on the whole. At their worst they are irksome | ||

With announcement threads, making it against the rules to express congratulations/excitement/disappointment etc in a short post would be ridiculous. In a thread like 'Jaedong has joined EG', what can common folk contribute to the discussion besides 'yay!'? On the other hand, short posts that do not contribute to anything in forums such as the strategy forums obviously do not belong there and should be warned. | ||

If you drew the 'yay' out for multiple lines, I think that may be acceptable. It is not a one liner, and therefore contributes. | ||

We are definitely on the same page, I just suck at translating the cadence of a sentence in my head to paper X__x | ||
