Shinsyn Report post Posted March 22, 2010 No you wern't bro, That thread needed to die ASAP! These spambots are out of control. I saw it and had an awkward moment, I then asked myself: Why in the hell did I click on this?! I knew what was in here?! No one to blame but myself I guess.

Digital Watches Report post Posted March 23, 2010 So... in general, mods watch the forums for spambot threads, but obviously our only tool is, well, noticing threads it's happening in. If you see a spam post, this thread is as good a place as any to POST A LINK TO IT. That way, a mod (such as myself or Spirit Drank or whatever) can investigate/go kill it.
