Hey all,
Thanks to Justin, we now have gotten rid of the bots. The news here is that a real person can just register now without any admin approval. Yay.
yipee!
yggpyliqen didn't get the memo.

it was a brief, but joyous victory.
we try it again!
yipee! now getting the word HAWT out of the system would be nice!
it was gone for a while... but people started complaining.
maybe we should make it autoban if they use it. that might help.
and we wouldn't have to listen to them complaining, either. since they'd be gone!
I still don't see the objection to HAWT.... not that I use it that often (I think I have used it once...), but at the same time i don't find it particularly annoying.... d00d on the other hand....
well first of all, it is the worst spelling you can possible have for the word. i mean sound it out. "H-A-W-T" kinda sounds like a mix of some funky words that sound not cool! like an owl hooting or something? haha i dont know? it is just an ugly word.
what's wrong with H-A-W-T?
did you not read my last post geek?
i think it's funny to annoy people by using h-A-W-T.
dood.
Hawt is not evil. It's like phat or killa or l33t or .... etc. It's just slang.
so what's with all the bots lately? it's like a bot plague. and they're not even funny like they are on swingutah's site.
it's a periodic problem... sort of like the tide... they ebb and flow...
we make the site smarter... holds 'em off for a while... they make smarter bots.
we complain about it for a while, then make the site smarter.
by "we", of course, i mean "i"
ever get around to implementing that match the sheep idea?
nope
that sounds weird. in case you wanted my opinion.
bobthecow:we complain about it for a while, then make the site smarter.

Come on now bob, I help complain about it too!
site is a little smarter... we'll see how long this lasts.
bobthecow:site is a little smarter... we'll see how long this lasts.
almost three months... i don't think i've deleted a bot post since that last change. sweet!
i think we can declare a victory (for now...)
Why are you tempting fate bobtheemu? Don't you know questions like 'how could it get worse?' are always followed by examples?
the swingutah forum has also been wonderfully absent of bots. I love it.
me too. makes life so much easier...
indeed it does. now I have more time for slashdot
But now I don't know where to surf the web when I am bored?
I mean, where am I going to get stock tips from now?
I FIGURED IT OUT!!!
I know why the bots aren't getting through anymore!!
The tubes!!! They're plugged!! Enormous amounts of material... enormous amounts of material.
it's not just something you can dump things on.
it's not a big truck.
We need to send the gambling horses through and clear them up...
From my blog:
"Akismet has caught 6,721 spam for you since you first installed it."
If you all really miss it, I could post some of my spam comments on here...
pass. i think the top posters provide enough spam as it is.
true
Who are these top posters you speak of? And how could anything they say ever be spam?
I'm not really sure, but word on the street is that the #1 poster is a spam bot.
Probably.... i've thought so myself...
Be careful associating with him, you don't wanna get infected. Or maybe we do? Then this forum would be a lot more active!
I here he has a virus.... and flees.
you may bee inflected, Buzz! you'r starting to use the wrung wurds which isnt vary good.
popthestack:you may bee inflected, Buzz! you'r starting to use the wrung wurds which isnt vary good.

Whoa, that 6,721 was over the course of several months. Since my post, it's changed significantly:
"Akismet has caught 9,872 spam for you since you first installed it."
