Wow. I'm not sure if progra's post in the "survey for university" thread is spam or not - necromancy, unrelated to the topic of the thread, but related to the RPG forum, though several years out of date... but there's a random link in the signature line...

If Progra is a real person and objects to this, then we know it's not spam. Otherwise, I'd delete it.

Oh, clever. I like this, yes I do. Progra is indeed a bot, but a cleverly programmed one - it finds old posts in a forum and posts them as its own. The two posts echoed by progra are this one and this one.

I'm deleting the posts...

Wow, that's smart! Bots are getting cleverer...

Skynet is coming!

Leraroachs is another. The link in the sig is a dead giveaway.

Oh wow, AwattyDierwew is a bot. That's really clever, adding an introduction post. The second post was in the Art forum, something in French with two links.

I did wonder, since the introduction was so generalised, but hey, bots need a welcome too right? Even if that welcome is fiery...

You guys ever feel that in 200 years, when people are researching the rise of our robot overlords, EH will be one of the best archaeological sites for viewing the evolution of artificial intelligence?

"EH"? And do you mean, because we're cataloguing what the bots do? Th's a cool thought - being part of future research papers.
