I was just wondering why there only seems to be spammers on the general page? Is there any logical explanation to that?
It's getting hard to find peoples programs D:

A Spammer's logic
1. Spam
2. Get clicks to websites
3. Somehow get profit

Also try clicking on the Load more topics button at the bottom of the page. And people's programs are located in the programs section

Of course :P/>
When I wrote programs, I really meant posts. I guess my brain deactivated right there :P/> Brain.exe not responding

well there are many posts about spam, there's one stuck at the top of the subforum, I think it is expected that you know about it, it is being worked on. complaining encourages griefers, it may encourage spammers. just do your best to report and remove them, otherwise ignore them. I'm no mod so I can't tell you that's definitely why it was removed but that's my best guess

because they are bots, and automatically target the general section

Well I'm glad that the program section isn't that targeted.

What difference would there be? Cloudy the spambothunter removes them all anyways(I know cloudy isn't the only one removeing spam but I couldn't come up with fancy names for the other mods)
