To me, what was depressing was to see all those otherwise smart people fall for it and reply with sarcasm and ridicule under the assumption that they were responding to a drip who was asking for romantic advice in the wrong forum.

Yes, I found that amazing too, as I had to sift through all the replies to see if someone had sussed him, and it was sad to see how many hadn't. 
|
|

|

I did the same, I read every reply to see if at least one person had identified the spamming. Nope, not a single one.

You're still not clever enough to join the club.

4 years versus 1 year, I'll be more pompous than you in a couple of weeks.

You two, get a room so you can share your pompositousness.

I identified it as spam, a while after I replied (yesterday). And I marked it as spam, and reported the member in his profile as a spammer too!
But when I saw it today, I reported the message (it was removed immediately), and reported the member too. The member profile is now active; may be the ban-hamsters are busy partying. But they WILL visit him.

Happened to come across a 9 year old post while searching for something else. Apparently it isn't associated with my profile. May not be a bug, just me forgetting to log in. Thought I'd let you know, just in case.

Yes - that post was from a time past. A gentler time where anonymous posting was allowed, even encourage. A time of innocence lost.
So yes, you can vote on it because the system can't definitively say it's you.
Maybe we should open up to anonymous posting again...

So you are seriously implying the hamsters are refurbishing dates. 
I'd really like to know two things then:
- What the f**k were they thinking?
- How in god's name did they get up the palm trees?

This is a bug we've been fighting for weeks now. We have tried everything, and I mean, everything. We'll keep gnawing away at it.
