    Okay, I'm finding that people like to post to those stupid Spam-Bot threads, so what I'm saying is to not post to them at all, and just leave them to the Mods or the Admins to take care of.

    ~Thank you.

    Well, if the thread is completely off-topic and they're posting bad things, then it's a spambot. Usually the have a :) beside the thread name.

    I'd also like to say that if you guys do run across any of these threads, Posted Imageing them to us would make our lives a heck of a lot easier. ^_^

    OK, I usually report them anyway. It's pretty obvious who spambots are - the post links to random sites.

    I wonder where these bosses come from? Are they just confined to one room? What do they eat?

    You can Private Message (PM) me if you need help with something.
    What is a spam-bot? Is it a real person, or is it some macro that goes out to tons of sites, and if so, how do they get it on here (Nintendo Forums)?

    Well, I shouldn't really have to tell you, but there's no reason AT ALL to post to them besides getting +1 post count. So don't post to them, there's absolutely no point.

    It's someone who goes out, creates an account and posts links to sites. So, I think it's a real person.

    Spambots are not real people- they are automated. Otherwise, they wouldn't be called 'bots'. :rolleyes:

    Yep.

    You don't have to worry about me posting in them unless I'm telling some one else not to. But glad to see LK is letting the rest know. ;)
