I don't understand---I know it is all computer generated from some dumb company. Do they make that much money from the Internet or are they just desperate?

I've never seen it this bad..Earlier I got tired of sifting through it and logged off. Not only did these creeps post a zillion new threads, but they put their junk on a whole bunch of old stuff too. It's ok..I know that when I come back on tomorrow afternoon everything will be back to normal again.

Hey Denny, I know this may be an extreme suggestion, but what if you were to put some sort of authintication when people log in that changes? I have noticed a few of the forums I frequent use a little box with a series of letter and numbers to to authentication. What if you were to use something similar to gain access to the foums?
