It means "Attention: forum". As in I demand the forum's attention. But it's not a separate forum. And I abused the enter key in this post. k.

Why do you always have the "Invisible User" option on? It dosn't work. You're the only one who uses it.

You're the only one who uses it. Uhhhh, no I'm not? And since I'm not, it gives me more anonymity.

Really? Well, you're the only person who posts while invisble. To my knowledge.
Why do you want to take attention from the spam lounge?

Because 90% of the time I log on, I see the last post in GD as the Spam Lounge. Since I don't really post there because I either have no idea what's going on or because it sucks away other productive discussions like super special awesome Futurama from this particular forum, I get tired of seeing people posting there more in the entire GD and become reluctant to post more outside of the Spam Lounge.
Keep in mind though that even during DC's Challenge, I didn't like the Spam Lounge but supported keeping it open just so people who had the urge to post something that wouldn't really fit anywhere else. Each time I've visited, it's not even spam, especially after DC laid down some ground rules. Now it's more a chat thread and posting funny YT links which can be placed in other parts of the forum. Of course, I'm under the impression people post their links, videos, and interesting contribution because the simple fact they know people will actually read into the Spam Lounge.

Also, specialized threads (IE Youtube dump thread) have short lifespans because they focus on one thing too much. The reason the Spam Lounge hasn't died is because the discussion can flow from one subject to another, always bringing in new life.
Why don't you post more in the spam lounge? I remember SJ hated the Spam Lounge, but I still see his occasional contribution.

I agree that a diverse range of specialty threads is good, but General Discussion actually does get quite a few quality topics. Still, a question thread like this one is a nice addition. Not that I have a question now, though.

Why is it that you want attention out of the Spam Lounge when you can just post in there?

The reason the Spam Lounge hasn't died is because the discussion can flow from one subject to another, always bringing in new life. Why don't you post more in the spam lounge? I remember SJ hated the Spam Lounge, but I still see his occasional contribution. The point is that they don't have to have short life spans. Even the previous spam threads died out eventually. To be honest, I'm surprised it's still around. But what you said in the first part of that post is another reason why I don't really like it. I will and sometimes do post in the Spam Lounge, but the topic either shifts too quickly, I forgot all about my post there, or because of the "don't like it don't post" thought in my head. Which is why I try to do topics detracting from simply a large chat thread. Why is it that you want attention out of the Spam Lounge when you can just post in there? Because I’m not particularly fond of it and contributing to it does nothing toward my goal of diversifying threads in GD, at the very least. Not to say I hate it or anything; I just think too much attention is given to it because you can post anything there and get away with it. In your opinion, why is there nothing good on tv anymore. It’s not that there’s nothing good, it’s the fact that there are fewer good shows on TV. Some of it is recycled mind trash, some of it is directed at showing DRAMA, and some of it was based upon a bad idea in the first place. Once in a while, you have shows that are decent like Futurama, CSI: Miami, and sometimes Family Guy. Then again, sometimes you don’t. The slapstick humour of yesteryear is replaced with audiences who crave jokes and comedy that is crude, “edgy”, or unfunny memes from the internet. Your mom.
