Thanks. I got to this one first!
(BTW - on the anti-spam update, we're moving to a new version of Board software soon and this will allow a Question to be answered for sign-up. We can make it reject-related and hopefully it will ward off the spammers.)

You could make it something podcast related, such as "What was who doing?"

Here, I don't want to get in over my head here, but I have literally no life, and am on the laptop for a fair portion of the day when I'm not at school (and sometimes when I am), and whatever I'm doing the forum's usually open in another tab. Might be a thought, since Carlos and goblin are off being adults...

Actually no. That'd be unnecessary.

Magnificent weather? Hardly.

Maybe the cold, maybe exasperation with being told about free trials for female viagra.

Funny you should say that; my email to our Admin reads
Please sort this one out. He's offering female Viagra; whatever that is, it's putting the fear of God into me.

I know. I am one. I just got out of control. Sometimes I slip back in to...free prozac trial 2$...snap out of it shinji. You've been through therapy. You're not a spambot. Just a bit strange.

Maybe someone has written an app that monitors the time of message deletion. And the bot then preferrably posts at the time of no deletions?

They just post when they're dinning or sleeping, so you know the drill from now on. Being a moderator implies responsibilities...

I object. The environmental economist here does object. Does you know there are now companies that allow you use a potted pine tree and will take it back and replant it in the end? You can use the same tree several years in a row and everything.

Just to say, I've been working selling Christmas trees the last two weeks and we had some potted ones; nobody bought one. People would buy 5 foot crap wiry ones before getting a nice bushy, healthy potted one. 'Twas strange.
