Syo Emerald Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I think spam groups are useless. Because who would like to get spammed all day by a group with random advertisement? Probably not many. I know I wouldn't give up one of my precious group spots to something thats going to annoy me in all the wrong moments. The only kind of messages that interest me come from specific groups I'm in. Mostly events, clubs and interest groups I'm in and even there I mute groups which get overly active with notifications.

Freya Mokusei Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Like Syo, I can't imagine that Spam groups serve any useful function. I have never joined one and never would. People inside them probably only want to communicate outwards (not inwards, to receive) - it's hard for me to imagine any new or old user deciding they wanted to "opt-in" to receiving unsolicited, untargeted marketing information. That said, I'm happy for those who would use these high-noise-low-signal practices as part of their marketing to keep on sending them to each other forever. This sounds like a perfect definition of the "hell" they should end up in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie Antonioni Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I belong to 11 spam groups. I open, and then close each spam group when I get on. I was in 7 spam groups just a few months ago. I decided to join a few more. The last four I joined, allows me to send out notices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Jetaime Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 The only people that join spam groups are people that want to spam, and those people probably have group notices turned off so they won't be spammed. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iyoba Tarantal Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Spam groups are part of Second Life's international atmosphere. I remember learning about spam groups early in my Second Life career and wondering why would any one even put the word, Spam, in the title of a group. The answer is that among Portuguese speakers spam DOES NOT have the negative connotations it has for North Americans. People want the ads, just the way our mothers love those coupon circulars the supermarkets send out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
