A clever post ... foiled

Post by ckguy »

... or so the admins thought!

Someone posted something to this effect in the "Other Keen Stuff" forum:

does anyone know where i can download some good movies online for free? thanks

And while I was writing the following clever post, the thread was apparently deleted:
I cleverly wrote:Eh? Is this spam? It's certainly not other Keen stuff!

If you mean, where can you download movies illegally, I would recommend torrents, and then not mentioning it here. (It's what I do, apart from this meta-reference, and that meta-meta-reference, and that meta-meta-meta-reference, and ... G.O.Re. [G.O.Re. over reference]. One typeless reference made.)

If you mean the titles of some good movies ... um ... try that Yahoo service where you tell it what movies you like, and then it says what movies you might like. (I've heard it works well, but I've never tried it myself.)

(And that whole meta-reference thing--it was a "Godel, Escher, Bach" refernce, which is an amazing book. Too bad this was a good movie thread, and not a good book thread.)
I couldn't see it go to waste!

I bet this thread gets the boot, too.

Yes, this thread gets the boot.

It was a spam bot... And I've asked you guys to stop replying to them (it shouldn't be that difficult to see who are bots) with your clever messages, because I'd like to delete such topics and not store them because of your posts... :p So what is this thread now? Spam? :D

Ah, cheers, I almost entirely forgot that! Locking it right now.
