Sorry about that everybody. That one got to over 150 posts in a big hurry.
Geez...a guy can't even go take a walk with his wife after dinner without some bot tearing up the place.

When the poo-storm first started, it looked to me like roughly 2-3 stupid thread bumps a minute were taking place...

Just curious...is this an automated thing that is happening? Or is this some idiot who physically goes through each thread and copy/pastes his/her garbage? What makes them think we will go see or buy the stuff they are peddling? Morbid curiosity?
If it's automated, you would at least think they would send messages that make sense....

It's automated. The authors of these bots don't have a good grasp of the English language obviously.

They arent google ads-- they are very poorly implimented and not exactly targeted toward a focus group (adult Mavs fans play a children's online game like Maple Story?!?). Its spam at its worst-- a shotgun blast that wastes time and bandwidth with little chance of selling anything. As much as I despise the crap out of it, there isnt much you can do. At least they cant create threads.

I was thinking about the site stats today. Obviously, we have a ton of bots and non-active accounts with < 3 posts or whatever..soo our member tally is inaccurate, but our post count is almost up to 900,000
I gotta say, most of those 900k posts have been top notch quality.. worth at LEAST 4 spurstalk or dallasbasketball.com posts :P
thanks again to all the mods and dj for keeping this site up and running

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to fluid.forty.one again.
