You were.  But then Tage deleted more spambots.  So now you're not.  

Is that quote from Much Ado?  It sounds familiar.

Edit:  Googled and no, it's not.  I was never any good at spot quotes.  I must have read that poem at some point though.

Woo hoo!  I was special for a few moments!

The quote is from William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of King Richard The Third".  I really like the monologue at the beginning.  Though I was very tempted to throw another different quote in there that very few people would recognize.

Quote
You are
What you do
When it counts.


Find the book that goes with that quote and you will have one of the best Sci-Fi books ever.
And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover
To entertain these fair well-spoken days,
I am determined to prove a villain
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.

It should also be noted that one of the accounts is the account we used a year ago when Wizards "bought us out." A staff member was fired then too.

I'm getting tired of asking, so is it for real this time? If it is, then burn the new member at the stake for taking so long, and if it isn't then burn all those guys who only posted once.

Well, if it is, then you guys will be burning him without The Master of Newbie Smackdown, because the newest member happens to be a friend of mine.

I was actually talking about member number 500 which right now happens to be Valintino or something like that, so you can still help with the burning :)

Not for real again, I know of 5 bots that registered last week or so.

Anyone with mail.ru in our system is a spammer/bot.

Found a few more farther back in the memberlist

So there's 7 for you.  But we're getting closer.

ugg no.  We can't have our 500th member be someone who's allready been banned on the forum twice.

Well if it isn't then Sprigg better catch up on his banning; 635 is not exactly less than 500.
