Welcome to a spammer's pocket guide to spam:

[2. Trade][Ultion]: While you might have expected a guide to stopping spam, I say fight fire with fire with more fire. [2. Trade][Ultion]: Before this guide starts Ill start with the definition of spam:

a disruptive, esp. commercial message posted on a computer network or sent as e-mail.

Spam - Spamming, in the context of computer games, refers to the rapid, repeated use of the same item or action. For example, "grenade spamming" is the act of a player throwing a
large amount of grenades in succession into an area. ...

[2. Trade][Ultion]: Hopefully this small guide will have you slinging spells and sentences faster than ever before!
[2. Trade][Ultion]: Spam is not only a delicious food (yeah right...) but a great tool in video games for...ehh..spamming..
[2. Trade][Ultion]: In World of Warcraft, spamming in a combat context is a great skill to learn/know, allowing you to
[2. Trade][Ultion]: seamlessly unleash powerful spell after powerful spell. Before you read further I will note that many
[2. Trade][Ultion]: players will express jealousy of the awesome skills you are about to learn here and may call you names like
[2. Trade][Ultion]: " NoOb " and " spamer nub " .


[2. Trade][Ultion]: First things first Ill show you how to spam in combat.
[2. Trade][Ultion]: Below, this image shows the standard actionbar for a warlock. The spell on the left called
[2. Trade][Ultion]: "shadowbolt " is a good spammer move.
[2. Trade][Ultion]: The first thing to do is click this spell rapidly



[2. Trade][Ultion]: After clicking shadowbolt, you will be awarded with a glowing outline confirming your success in clicking it.




[2. Trade][Ultion]: This will unleash shadowbolt and temporarily make it unavailable for use. This time would usually be spent moving your mouse or
[2. Trade][Ultion]: hand ready to press the next key: this is where the spammer excels. Knowing you will be casting the same spell again do
[2. Trade][Ultion]: not move your hand. Instead fight against instinct itself and keep clicking the same spell. "But ultion, this is madnesss!!"
[2. Trade][Ultion]: they might say, simply chuckle as they see the mighty forces you unleash through this technique, they will learn to fear you! (12% more efficient than love).


[2. Trade][Ultion]: The above is a simple formula to success, simply rinse and repeat to max dps. Consistency is key and a spammer knows this deep
[2. Trade][Ultion]: down. Using the example above, the player would continue to click shadowbolt until their target is nothing but a smoldering pile of ash.
[2. Trade][Ultion]: Now I will show you how to spam in chat. This is a useful tool for gaining the attention of underlings and comrades (if you have any).
[2. Trade][Ultion]: A warning before you continue: Blizzard frowns on people using this powerful technique and may, out of pure jealously, punish you.

[2. Trade][Ultion]: To start, You must come up with a phrase, such as " WTS simple flour 10g ". Opening your menu select
[2. Trade][Ultion]: This should reveal the menu below



[2. Trade][Ultion]: In the macro name box put a simple name like " WTS 1 " and select a pretty image (bile spewing one makes for an ironic choice)
[2. Trade][Ultion]: After clicking okay, type the following into your macro commands box " /2 WTS {item} {price} !!! " filing in the blanks appropriately.
[2. Trade][Ultion]: With this done, drag this icon onto your actionbar, go somewhere public like a city and let rip, clicking that icon like there's no [2. Trade][Ultion]: tomorrow! (click too much and there might not be...)
[2. Trade][Ultion]: A good tip is to click this roughly 5 times then wait 10 seconds then click again 5times and wait another 10 seconds.


[2. Trade][Ultion]:This technique will boost your productivity tenfold!


[2. Trade][Ultion]: Finally some expert tips on this vocation:

[2. Trade][Ultion]: 1st, if someone calls you out, reply with a your moma joke in public chat, this will spark a public argument that other people will
[2. Trade][Ultion]:get involved in. When things heat up simply lay low for a few minutes then let the spam keep rolling..


[2. Trade][Ultion]: 2nd, the /ignore feature, while your biggest enemy is also your biggest friend, don't waste time on a whispered duel with
[2. Trade][Ultion]:someone, just ignore them, this will make you feel like a big man.


[2. Trade][Ultion]: 3rd, Chicks dig spamming, I know, who would have thought, but they love it, trade spam,general spam, they cant get enough!


[2. Trade][Ultion]: 4th and finally, accomplices are good, not only for helping you spam but to pin the blame on if your caught. Simply bribe a low
[2. Trade][Ultion]: level new to the game (look for people without heirlooms) with gold. be careful though, try not to get attached to this guy, he
[2. Trade][Ultion]: might seem cute and cuddly but if you get attached to him it will hurt when he attempts to pin the blame on you instead..

[2. Trade][Ultion]: If you made it this far I salute you, and wish you the best for Christmas, may your spam be plentiful !!!

[Orcbert]

Wouldn't it be *spammer's*?

[Warriorfury]

Wouldn't it be *spammer's*?

Both would be gramatically incorrecy... it would be "spammers" or "spammers'"...
