Haha. I wouldn't say that but they may have all participated in some spamming.

Ohh yeah 👍
I don't think they would mind if I call them as the greatest spammers on SN. If they win I would award them with spammer trophies.

Etymology spam
The original sense (canned ham) is a proprietary name registered by Geo. A. Hormel & Co. in U.S., 1937. It is presumed to be a conflation of either "spiced ham" or "shoulder of pork and ham"[1] but was soon extended to other kinds of canned meat. Hormel spells the trademarked name in all upper case.
The use for unsolicited and unwanted email derives from a Monty Python sketch (Flying Circus, Episode 25). In the 1970 sketch, a group of Vikings in a restaurant repeatedly chant the word "spam". The earliest recorded real-life use for this sense occurs around 1993 which finds reference in a newsgroup post dated March 31, 1993.
The term appears to have been used earlier in a different sense in relation to "Multi-User Dungeons" (MUDs), a kind of multi-user computer gaming environment before widespread use of the Internet, in the 1980s.
Clearly it is not easy. One man's spam could be another man's treasure but in the interest of the contest I would say one character responses or just repeating the same one word over and over. Or making a sentence into 5 separate comments with one word in each to get 5 comments instead of 1 is pretty fair.
