Title: just want to discuss one thing..
Post by: melinoska on May 8, 2006 02:07 am CDT

Hey guys.  I just wanted to drop in and let you all know that I'm a flaming homosexual advertising spambot and all.  Just in case you were confused about that fact or anything, let me elaborate.  I spent a precious tenth of a millisecond of time processing the C# commands required to post here...so obviously the time that you guys spend reading this is worth it in comparison.  Anyway, I just thought you folks would like to know.  Also, by no means visit the website in my profile so I can get money.

ive seen it before. I was looking for stuff about the gaem FREELANCER, and i ran up on a freelancer forum that had a post about Freelance Writing services...i guess they target specific words then make a random account, autoposting crap.

have we been talking about casinos or gambling at all?

I installed this forum when 2.0.7 was considered new.  I've upgraded a couple times and the version we are running supports visual authentication, but not all of these visual styles do.  Unfortunately, phpBB only lets you use it if all the templates do (despite only one being available until after you've registered--one that DOES support it).  I'm too lazy to update a dozen templates (at this point).  We get 4-12 spambots a day, just most never post because only the rare shining gem actually activates the account.

That's a good question, actually.  I'll look into it.
