    here is one definition of spam - unwanted and unnecesary messages with very little or no meaning or point. is that a good definition?

    And what you think has little to no meaning might be important to someone. Example - do you read the labels on the food you get from the grocery store to see what's in it? Might not be important to you, but someone with allergies (simple food coloring Saffron - a cause of anaphylaxis) may read it so it's there even though it costs money and time to print, edit, and market.

    Kingsaskue, I think that was a good try at it. It's a difficult thing to truly define, but I'd love to see us agree as a community on what is spam and what is not.

    Spam is that which the sole purpose is to occupy space and nothing more.
