The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

One Nasty Virus

Imagine if you got the virus in this vid.  It would be quite nasty in the end.  Even an expert like LBTlover would have a hard time getting rid of this.

Let's just be glad this one wasn't real. :)

That would be one nasty virus if it were real.

Very impossible, but funny nonetheless.  Really worth my time, especially since it was a mac that got the virus. :lol

Imagine if it was real though.  It would be pretty nasty.  Also, considering that blowing up the PC didn't work, I doubt a reformat would. :P:
