No Dave, only log in went I have/want to.
It a habit I formed working in accounts & banking, don't keep logged in if you are not working, is bit of a security thing as well.

With the fizzer of a day of at Windy Hill, the press are needing any type of scoop to fill the papers.
Expect front and back pages to run with DTM's big footy ban and some "laugh at carlscum" quotes
Middle pages will be filled with the new romance of Tannin and E while Lazza and Piesnchess debate who has seen more Collingwood loses and who hates St Kilda's John O'Dea more.
Cooking and beauty tips courtesy of the VPT include topics Pubic Hair - where has it gone and dim sims - super food or looks to much like a shaved ball sack? |

What do Spam Bots? |
| wikipedia wrote: | Forum spambots surf the web, looking for guestbooks, wikis, blogs, forums, and other types of web forms that it can then use to submit bogus content. These often use OCR technology to bypass CAPTCHAs. Some spam messages are targeted towards readers and can involve techniques of target marketing or even phishing, making it hard to tell real posts from the bot generated ones. Other spam messages are not meant to be read by humans, but are instead posted to increase the number of hyperlinks to a particular web site, to boost its search engine ranking.
This category of spambot has gained considerable notoriety since November 2006, with the introduction of XRumer, a forum and wiki spambot which can often bypass many of the safeguards administrators use to reduce the amount of spam posted.
One way to prevent spambots from creating automated posts is to require the poster to confirm their intention to post via e-mail. Since most spambot scripts use a fake e-mail address when posting, any email confirmation request is unlikely to be successfully routed to them. Some spambots will pass this step by providing a valid email address and use it for validation, mostly via webmail services. Using methods such as security questions are also proven to be effective in curbing posts generated by spambots, as they are usually unable to answer it upon registering. |
I had the same issue when I had my own forum! That's why most, if not all, forums get you to fill out letters or numbers when signing up. To stop all spambots making fake accounts and bombarding us with spam.

YOU may have some truth there ! I recall a couple of years ago, one of my comments on the Pies- I think it was the Shaw betting thing- ended up as a quote in an Age article by some sports journo, saying " this is the sort of thing Magpie fans are saying now ". It just got lifted from my post, I had no idea until Jack pointed it out to me.

WOW
Everyone would remember the Herald Sun story involving Joffa around late 2008 about the whole guns issue and he made a post back in November 2008 and before you know it was front page news a month later. Blind Freddy could see that the Herald Sun was trying to find a story over December and they obviously trawled through Nicks.
