    Well, if it's a bot, it is pretty smart for a bot. It can reply to my PMs on an inteligible manner...

    no bot. Human. Promoting his site, via his limited JP PM box. No harm, no foul. His site quite nice (and familiar looking). More power to him.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    Oh no, now Kukrikhan's been swallowed whole and forced to write recommendations for their site! God, those bots are cruel...

    Usually in the registration process of a forum you are prompted to type in some numbers or letters in order to identify you as a human and not a bot. I forget whether The Guild has it or not. It certainly stops those porn bots!!!

    Ok, so it's for real.

    There's another gamesite that I frequent a lot that is sheer spambot heaven. Every other thread started reads something like:

    'name'

    In general, I would ask you if you have any problems with other members being it the assumption of their botness or something else, please contact a moderator first instead of making it public.
