Attention: Spam is NOT defined as anything "Not on a base plate." as common myth claims.
Its defined as: "Anything that uses more bricks than necessary".
An example being: Say your making a wall (1x12x5 standard), but instead of using that one brick the (1x12x5), you use 12 1x1x5's to simulate the same effect...
Even a less dramatic split, like 3 1x4x5's is still technically spam. Avoid doing this unless used for a visual purpose.
In conclusion, just because its not red or on a base plate does not mean it isn't spam..
The point of not 'spamming' is to reduce brick count which will cut lag resulting in a smoother gameplay.
Not to mention, Spam is ugly. Take your time with your builds. Don't take the easy way out...

To those who understand this already, Im sorry. It probably seems silly, "Why would you feel the need to post this?" But to some, its a new concept.
It seems like fewer and fewer people truly understand what 'spam' really is and its starting to bugging me.
Too many times have I joined a server just to see an otherwise good build, ruined by excessive use of small bricks. The aspect needs to be refreshed...
