spam is unwanted E-mails or posts (on a forum) it can be very annoying for most people. Sometimes someone will make a "spam bot" that just posts nonsense, or inappropriate adds. You may have seen a question here that you said to yourself "that doesn't belong here", or "thats a pointless waste of space". that would be spam

Spamming is the abuse of electronic messaging systems to send unsolicited, undesired bulk messages. While the most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam, the term is applied to similar abuses in other media: instant messaging spam, Usenet newsgroup spam, Web search engine spam, spam in blogs, and mobile phone messaging spam.

spam is usualy just junk mail that gets sent to your inbox and is full of rubbish that you dont ever need. For exampel it could include things like buy viagra today for example. They are worthless pieces of junk in my opinion and im sure others would agree.

Its basically like getting loads of leaflets advertising crap events and products through your door. When you have loads of them on your computer it will run really slow, so its a pain having to delete them all the time. Spam is like crap meat, hence the name. x
