Now the poor mods have to go through the mass of registered names and try to weed out the bots that have yet to post...

*sigh*

Is it easy to add the 'report post' mod that they have?

Post reporting has been turned on. You can use the little red exclamation point to report posts.

int getRandomInt() { 
    return 4; // obtained using roll of fair die 
              // guaranteed to be random

I have also installed a mod to make it harder for bots to register in the future. This should help make everything a little more manageable.

Please report all the bad crap that you see. We'll try to get on top of it all ASAP.

In addiditon, I went through and nuked about 3 dozen accounts that were clearly spammers. If I cut you or someone you know off, I apologize. I hope that will get the board on better footing.

Well whatever y'all are doing, it seems to be working better than a few days ago.

Even though some of those images were pretty funny.
