Mark Martin is probably the coolest old guy ever

Could update my Eagles log today, for the first time in about 3 months.

Damn straight.

So I've had 08 for 4, close to five years running. Tonight was the first time I actually beat the Galaxysharks in the championship game. I just have to say that might have been the hardest I ever played an MLB game in my life.

try to beat the champion (or championship i dont remember) rings in mlbpp 07, it's even harder

For me its impossible to lose to them. I always make it to the Supes game.

lol, then we are the opposite, i always beat the galaxysharks, but i can only win like 1 out of 8 games against the rings or something like that

I always beat them too.

I saw a Middle School team do the Harlem Shake live in Madison this weekend. It was pretty awesome.

The Netherlands. That's all I have to say.

I've always wondered why spammers on forums are programmed to make no sense whatsoever. As far as I can tell they're just programmed to use a bunch of words that don't work in a sentence with each other and throw links in their posts somewhere.

I don't understand why if they're around to advertise something, why not program them to say something good about whatever it is they're supposed to be advertising?

Yeah, I never got that either.

And, why are there so many lately!? I mean, it's been like 4 different ones in the past week

I honestly can't tell you why there have been so many lately. I've been contacting DS whenever a bot does happen to come on, and (sometimes) I delete some of that spammer's posts to make it easier for him. There really aren't many ways to ban certain spammers from coming on to spam on here at least, other than blocking I.P. addresses, specific usernames, and their e-mail host. There's no way one can predict what a bot will do, and in what form, so for right now, just ignore the spam posts, and let DS and I deal with the situation.

idk what's called but, when you make a gmail account, there's this picture in black and white of random letters and numbers, with squiggly lines going through it, so it can verify that you are a human, why can't we add that for the create account to stop bots from spamming?

We already do have something like that

Well, if we do have a Captcha system, it must not be bot-proof enough. Maybe have a simple type-in question (e.g. "What is the name of the game this forum is based on?") to prove that it is a human? I'll talk to DS about that when I get the time.
