Is it just me, or have we been invaded by Bots??

Clubber, I think the Bots are a computer program set up to make threads when the activity on the forum is low. At least that's how it was explained last year.

I don't have a problem with the bot when it works the way it usually does but lately it's been spamming the forum something fierce. Especially considering that most of it's threads are about the XBox 360.

It just seems to be cramming all the boards with the same garbage questions, and its all faceless because you don't know who you are talking to, and you don't get any feedback on the responses.

I don't think it promotes discussion, it just becomes a one way Q&A.

Good point, I totally missed the issue.

I could start deleting threads? Send me a link to game related threads and I'll send them to an early grave. Honestly I don't know where to begin...It's overwhelming and makes it difficult to find the real SPAM.
