Yeah, total spam, haven't clicked the link and won't too obvious! But still worth a red.

I think there's a program generating those posts.

I'd also consider running a spyware and virus check (if you clicked on the link).

Can't be too paranoid.

If you look at the posts they all look computer generated - simple responses to keywords

e.g.

Q: Your a retard
A: am i a retard because of my sig

A thread about "arms" gives:
Is the arm in my signature the right one?

A thread about "shows" gives:
I like those shows check out my sig please its cool

Then there are the stock phrases when all else fails e.g.
Thats cool Look at my sig its kinda like that.


There was a very simple program called Eliza written in 1966 which did something very similar. Also, what was that web page that was linked to on YD a few months back - the one with the sexy computer generated diver who Digger nearly got off with ?
