	Yeah the new users were probably a bot (program). Some unscrupulous people like to use programs to post links to their websites in order to generate traffic to those websites and hence clicks on the adverts on those websites resulting in money from Google.

			You're welcome Rem. I'll get a hold of you one of these days. Just stuck with final exams right now and stuff.

			It must have been some kind of bot that was making all those new users. James Moore, the webmaster here, put a stop to it.

			well it's nice to see the new users have stopped. We welcome new users of course but not the kind the now defunct TROLL ERA was pretending to be. What a waste of good space. Except I'm suspicious about the few new users we did gain in the last couple of days...

			Thanks for getting rid of that delusional and out of place nonsense, Sanjin. I just read a bunch of it and it made my brain almost hurt, as well as the deeper issue of the fact that it just jolted my humaneness and refinement. I might actually need to meditate on that... It'll be good to meet you in a few weeks btw. :)
