XD nice one. I've never encountered a spambot, but I encountered a possible one, but I think it was actually just a spammer (Porkey Minch).
If I had something witty or particularly creative to say, it would go here.

Luckily for you guys, this isn't the most popular site. On Eddsworld forums we get 3-5 advertbots a week.
And I know easily what is a spambot before it posts.
What is, of course? It's age.

Funny thing, once there was a spambot and his occupation was a bus driver.

I saw one earlier (redchao also saw him.) and his name actually seemed legit, but he was advertising dresses. :( He had a cool username too.
