What would designate one as such?

Mainly BoTTers. We shouldn't get too many at this point. But somebody could manually signup and for an account as a human and bot the posts later.

You'll know them when you see them. Any body who has a few short vague...

"Hi hello." style messages that doesn't say anything specific about the site.

I think most of you can spot them when you see it. :-)

I have confidence in you guys. You've done a pretty good job of calling them out in the past.

Quick question. If we find one, do we send you an e-mail or post a link here?

Are you still manually approving forum accounts, Ronald? Just to know if we are to expect these spam posts to be made by accounts registered a while ago.

I think he does, a friend of mine a few days ago said she was rejected because Ronald must have pegged her a botter or something. In any case, I'm sure everybody here will keep a close lookout for anything that might turn out to be a botting case.
