Interseting that this forum is getting a lot of bot posts recently. Heck even the thread started by Xrumer that turned into an RP thread was a bot.

"XRumer is a software application that automatically posts your messages to forums, guestbooks, bulletin boards and catalogs of the links (as well as into livejournals and wiki). In a word it is an autosubmitter. Currently available version is 2.9."

This forum may need to start using the image verification techniques for registering new accounts.

What the heck is the point of those? Other to be annoying.

The ones that are ads I can at least see the point. But the ones that try to be 'girl from Singapore' or whatever. Just... pointless.

What can I say? If life gives lemons... make lemonade? Isn't that the old poster in Stephen King's book Cujo?

*clarifying*

This about starting a RP in a spam-thread
