What's ub3r junk abuse? - Automatic Coding - Jan 11, 2012
Someone just got banned for it, how can you abuse junking your own threads? Q_Q
* - Ignite. - Jan 11, 2012
They were mostly banned for "mass junking" which means junking every possible thread you can in like a time space of 5 mins.
* - Industry - Jan 11, 2012
Pretty much what Ignite said. I do however find it rather stupid that you would get in trouble for relieving even the smallest amount of DB/bandwidth by junking these.

When an Ub3r junks most of his threads it is considered Ub3r junk abuse.

If you overuse ub3r junk tool too much it becomes abuse.

Why is it abuse though?
If no one comments or posts on it, surely your allowed to junk it o.o

Not sure too much how it will save. Those threads aren't deleted, just moved to a special forum for them to sit in peace 😉
Though it can easily be reverted by Omniscient.

In short, mass JUNKING your threads is considered abuse. If you do that, Omniscient can easily revert all of your Ub3r Junks to their original forums and ban you. 🎉
