I guess they are either trying to catch the dumb-founded or want better google-page-ranking by having more links to their sites..(we should see it as a compliment that our site is going to be "considered" for more spam attacks :lol: kiddin)


thumbs up to nem for doin this. btw. I just saw guest posting is currently enabled (only on the new bote bug reports section). temporarily I guess due to the adding?

I'm guessing that guest posting is on by default. When we make new forums it gets turned on in there. I'll have a look at that and turn it off if I can.
