sounds good.

Boomboom I fgured you had my back on that one.

Wells, ohms now has upwards of 30,000 posts.

That is why post padding isn't anything special.

well because he isn't doing it himself...

Still not really sure why post-padding is anything special, whether or not you do it yourself...All it indicates is...way too much free time. :p

Of course. Even with 31,000 posts, most of ohms_law's posts have been actual responses, as well (considering he had 16,000 or so before running the bot). Obviously it was about to reach a point where most of his posts were bot-driven, but yeah.

There is a difference, even if people want to lump all post padding toegther. You don't need to be a genius to see the difference between botting and attaining the number how boomboom did.

Yeah, obviously...

Post-padding using a bot is pointless, and I also think post-padding just by making short irrelevent posts, as well as threads like "countdowns" and pure spam threads with no point are also pointless.
