SPAM has many meanings in many contexts. In ElaKiri we (well.. I) consider spam as:


1. Posting other Sri Lankan music or forum sites' urls.

2. Posting adult / erotic / pornographic content.

3. Posting your personal url / blog inorder to earn money from ElaKiri traffic.

4. Useless posts such as Hmmmm... balamu etc.

5. Flooding threads with replies. (posting 2 or more consecutive replies when you can post 1 with all the comments)

6. Insulting members / admin etc.


EDIT: No 2. added ;)

Spam kiyanne....

Spam originally referred to Spam (also written as SPAM), a canned meat product sold by the Hormel Foods Corporation. Since then, many other uses of the term have emerged.

Spam (Monty Python), a Monty Python comedy sketch. The "Spam" in the sketch refers specifically to the meat. Most later uses of "spam" refer in one way or another to undesirable repetition, and this sketch is considered to be the most likely source of such uses of the term.
Spam (electronic), unsolicited or undesired bulk electronic messages. There are many types of electronic spam, including
E-mail spam, unsolicited e-mail.
Mobile phone spam, unsolicited text messages.
Forum spam, posting advertisements or useless posts on a forum.
Spamdexing, manipulating a search engine to create the illusion of popularity for webpages.
Spam in blogs, posting random comments or promoting commercial services to blogs, wikis, guestbooks.
Newsgroup spam, advertisement and forgery on newsgroups.
Messaging spam ("SPIM"), use of instant messenger services for advertisement or even extortion.
Spam (computer game), to repeatedly use one weapon or tactic. This term is based on the technological meaning of undesired bulk electronic message.
Flyposting ("street spam"), illegal blanket advertising in public places.
Spam (song) can also refer to a song by "Weird Al" Yankovic. Unlike the other uses here, the song has no connection to either the earlier Monty Python sketch nor to the electronic uses of the term that came about afterwards. The song is a parody of Stand by R.E.M.
