On the expo side of things, would LOVE to, if i could afford to get to the US. Have every intention of going to UK ones. Would LOVE a press badge! Haha, but i plan on going to any i can either way.

Okay, i forgot where we were, majorly offtopic here, might be worth starting a new thread or continuing the conversation in the slowchat thread.

I just started a new thread here for us, that way we can start with a fresh thread instead of starting on page 103

Im not saying your lying - just none of us know you, so from our side of things we just want to speak to someone we know first. This site is in need of change and he did mention awhile back about possibly re-vamping it - so I just want him to confirm with me that you're that guy!

and it's nearly 4am here so Im off for now, and back 2moro on my quest in deleting any spam...

[wade.hinkle]

I totally understand.. Have a good night, maybe we can chat some more tomarrow

[_Chris_]

And lost finished airing in the US a little while ago, streams should be up. I know its on over here tomorrow night.. But i'm a LOST freak. So i'm gonna sit and watch that for a while, by the time that ends it'll be nearly 5AM, very nearly bed time for me.

God my sleeping pattern is SO screwed up right now.. Got another 2 and a half weeks off work from the doctor today... I need to go out clubbing SO much... Even a pub... Been stuck in this house for weeks... 2 weeks left.. CABIN FEVER!!

[wade.hinkle]

Sorry to hear that Chris

[_Chris_]

Yeah. Fractured ankle not fun. I'll feel less insane when i can actually go out and do things.. Until then, lots of gaming and newsposting!


And LOST of course. Which i am watching now. When my laptop wants to stop being a dick.

[wade.hinkle]

I've busted my ankle four times in my life, I know what your talking about

[Strawbs]

Hi Wade. I own all three systems as well. I'm excited to hear about the potential change/additions. Keep me in the loop as I'm very interested in what happens to this site.

Will do, I am very confident that it will be really great for the staff and our readers. I have already contacted many of the gaming companies and they are excited and ready to help anyway they can.

Ban them by accident - but until he spams...he's safe

[DestinySimmons]

Hey, this is my first post.
I'm interested in getting some useful info, I hope forum.xboxic.com is the right place.
Leave me a post and introduce yourself
Bye,

They are spam surely. They all have the same details. Their xbox and psn are always their forum name, Wii is 123456 and biography is man.

[Rossko_UK]

I just merged them, that way it hides the individual spam threads, should they be spammers.

[JasonA]

That things details were listed by many on StopForumSpam (I love that site...) banned it.

[Curry]

I switched to a new human verification mechanism, keep me posted whether it makes a difference.

Ok I will do... I guess there will still be a few bots who registered earlier today hanging on the system - so expecting a little spam for tonight/tomorrow of those who already listed in registered...

Oh it now asks a random question - hope it works better

Haha... also the new registration form which checks if you're a human being, has definately cut down on the spam bots!

There was usually 15 - 20 per day registering and listed in 'users awaiting email confirmation' - now for the first time in ages there are no people in that category. I can also see 3 new real people registrations - one of which is a front page regular, but he's not posted anything on the forums yet!
