    Default Suspected bot

    https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/member.php?u=29198

    'she' sent me a 'i'm new, whats going on' message which I deemed as harmless, tried to reply but her inbox was full. Then I forgot about this user until I joined another forum last night and got the self and same message. What can I do about this?

    When did you get that PM? The profile says that person hasn't been online since April 15th.

    I received a pm from her one or two months ago with a link of a Buddhist site; patricia dot something; the site is totally harmless but still I had the doubt it was a bot so I reported it directly to the Boss Tosainu. ;)

    Here is the message without the Link:

    Hi,
    I'm new here, how's it going?

    "Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein

    You are right. I'd like to know why this term was used by the admins.
