>I apologize to all you forum owners for what I did in the past. Yeah, well you made hundreds of thousands of people spend hundreds of hours cleaning up after automated bots turn a site to crap. The underlying issue here is a lack of understanding on the difference between taking cash and creating value. A reader of this might think that all this stuff is in the past, but it's getting bigger and more sophisticated by the day. The tools are all automated and the money is in the people who sell 'systems' which clip the ticket for all the wannabes who charge their credit cards for the latest 'make money online' schemes. They all convince themselves that spamming out links is providing what their marks want. I'm not surprised to hear that depression is a common result. Something like this could be worked into a decent movie script.
