• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

  • Server side Maintenance is done. We still have an update to the forum software to run but that one will have to wait for a better time.

if you look at your name on the side you will see that most of you have way more than the 5 required, lol
 
While I realize that net bots are usually for unsavory purposes (by our reckoning), I am reminded of a line from a Douglas Adams book.

We have machines to wash our clothes and dishes (washing machines, dish washers). We even have machines to watch our TV for us (DVRs). Now we even have machines to browse the web for us (bots).
