They must be getting no hits on their scam links so they are doubleing their efforts.
But yes, these bots are starting to become a scourge.

or the mods had to go to school so they aren't purged as quickly

That or the fact that a lot of mods are at PAX prime, maybe?

You gotta wonder about people who send spam about beauty/muscle building/testosterone products to a gaming forum... I think they got the wrong idea about the geek/nerd culture :D

Quarterback sounds like cheap nasty bacon. I don't want that, I want the good stuff.

Particularly since, IIRC, bacon is made from Pork Bellies, hence the American commodity trading item. Given the lean nature of modern pork, they probably have six-pack abs! I dunno where Canadian Bacon comes from, other than places like Toronto :D

We're bringing back bacon. BACK Bacon.

But belly pork is gorgeous too.

In fact, all the pig.

Except tripe, that's just nasty.

Maybe they think Feed The Beast sounds like a fitness program.
