Community Reception

Lime asking the spammer to advertise their cause in a less disruptive manner.

Unlike other controversial figures in OWOT, the PKK spammer has never displayed any signs of toxicity and seems to be genuinely invested in their cause. Rscr once described them as "the truest example of a chaotic good user."

However, their sheer dedication to spamming the mainpage has led most of the community to see them as a nuisance.

Lime.owot has put forth several measures for dealing with the spammer, ranging from giving them a smaller flag to proposing that they be limited to certain worlds in a hypothetical "world arrest" procedure.

Truce?

On August 21st, 2025, the PKK Spammer was convinced to stop spamming and instead maintain a single Kurdish flag at Spawn.

Relapse into spamming

The drama was reignited two days later when PKK(under the username "hamurab") spammed global chat with various profanities. An onslaught of canvas spam was also attributed to them, as they had used a similar script earlier that year(and some of the spam also shared a color palette with the Kurdish flag). On August 23rd, FP issued a warning and set up a script against the PKK spammer.

They have nevertheless ceased any spam that displayed PKK iconography and kept to maintaining their singular flag at Spawn, though they still complain whenever their flag is damaged by griefers. They have also developed more friendly relations with JRT, who used to be one of their most ardent critics.
