The post that brought this thread back (from 3 1/2 years ago!) had odd wording and it looked like it may not have been a human who wrote it- perhaps spam generated by another computer..... hence the word 'spambot' which means a robot (bot) that generates useless text (spam) and puts same on forums, group pages, etc.

And administrator will track down its sending location and determine if it is likely a human or not and if not, terminate the account.

Thanks... I can stop scratching my head now, although according to your explanation, there are quite a few of us here that fit the description sometimes  ;D

True, but at least we are 'real people' behaving badly..... which somehow is more comforting than machinery or automatons behaving badly..... I think. Maybe.  ;)

A year or two ago a gent. popped up claiming he was having some unusual trouble with a C-14 and he was in Mexico on vacation. Some of us thought 'him' a troll, others thought he was a real human in a real situation. I happened to be in the second group in that case so I tried to help the guy out such as I could from far away. Anyway, he did post back that he got to some level of function and was on his way- I wished him the best of luck, assuming 'he' was a real person and this 'Mexico' was a real place.

What would be the benefit of spambotting? I don't get why someone would set a computer to do that?

And by the way, I do not think 'fembot' is P.C. .  I believe the more correct expression would be 'Gyno- bots'.  ;)

On the issue of spambots it looks like two have registered on my mileage log site: http://www.wfr-ridersclub.com/miles/miles.asp (http://www.wfr-ridersclub.com/miles/miles.asp) with waht look like randomly generated user names.

At least I speculate they are bots because they are listing zero miles. The funny thing is the bike clubs they claim to be with.

Way OFFTOPIC:  Are those the models from Robert Palmer's 'Simply Irresistible'?  I remember that and the 'Addicted to love' videos. And now I am remembering them all over again :-)  I am old and freely admit I am not keeping up with what the current trends are but I have to say, I think a lot of today's artists, especially females, should sit down and watch those two videos and see if they might be able to get a feel for the difference between 'hot' and 'pig'.

OK, down off my "Kids today!" soapbox. :-)

Hey, I don't want to ruin the mood for you...lol, but those old Robert Palmer videos have been paid homage lately by a New York gal:

Ingrid Michaelson - Girls Chase Boys (An Homage to Robert Palmer's "Simply Irresistible") - OFFICIAL (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GBT37_yyzY#ws)

No problem- I did not watch (and will not watch) the video 'cause, well, (puts on P.C. hat) I choose not to do so. You should hear what Kirby thinks of it....

:-)

And I liked Palmer's videos from that era- still do and I don't want to taint the memory. But thanks for posting 'cause I no doubt would NOT have found it on my own.....  ::) ;)

Actually, IIRC, Robert Palmer was mid- 80's and that was the era of cassette players and the dawning of CD's- or maybe just a few years in the future.

Talent was not out of style yet though. :-) and BTW, Robert Palmer was a talented man. Died of a heart attack at 54.

Yep, big surprise then too. If I remember right, heart attack- the big one that saves all the tests and procedures that follow the little ones. Too bad, he was a talented guy I think and really pretty interesting as a human- at least from a distance when I saw him [not performing].
