The Speak Your Mind Forum was created precisely to allow for an environment in which most topics can be addressed, and moreover the forum also allows for socialising. Indeed, the forum was created specifically so those who were getting to know one another in the gaming forums (notably BG2) could have a place to chat generally without spamming those areas up.
Spam in SYM is therefore defined somewhat differently, as I understand it anyway. As an example, erm (sorry Aegis ) threads that are simply a successive listing of spelled out numbers designed to increase post counts.

Spam in SYM is also frowned upon when general conversation or otherwise unrelated material occurs in a thread that has a clearly designated subject.
Check out the link to this sticky at the top of SYM which will further clarify what I mean.
