    It's probably not a far fetch to say that much of the new users joining are bots:

    And so on so forth, completely nonsensical names like that are almost always bots.
    If anything it makes the forum appear more active, but you're going to need some more bot protection - they always go after new boards.

    Though the VB we're using must work pretty well to confuse the bots, very few of them get threads off - I've also seen one mistake their albums as a place to post threads.

    Aim of the game- a simple counting game, one simply has to add one to the previous person's number

    BUT

    If a person with an avatar that doesn't contain a pony posts, the count ENDS!

    You may only post twice every 24 hours. NO ADDING TWO!

    Sound simple? Then let's go!

    Technically, your avatar's not a pony. So I say 1.
     
  13. 2

    And just like that, all our hopes and dreams were crushed in a single instantaneous moment.
