This isn't a virus, and it isn't spam, it's just some turnip here sending out various "You should stop doing this", "Don't post to the forums" etc etc messages to people who have active email/MSN addresses set on this forum.

Ignore it. It's just some twat playing silly buggers. Feel free to report as spam to Hotmail and they'll close the account eventually. Or add it to your blocked users list. Or reply with a choice phrase or torrent of abuse. Do whatever you like, because it's not us (TGC).

Cheers,

Rich

"Why I am Arthur king of the Britains."
"King of the who?"
"Kind of the Britains."
"Who are the Britains?"
"Why we are all Britains and I am your king."
"Well I didn't vote for you."
"You do not vote for a king."
"Well how'd you get to be king then?"
"The lady of the lake. With her divine power thrust forth excallibur and said 'Arthur you shall be king' and that is why I am your king."
"Look strange ladies lieing at the bottom of ponds handing out swords is not a basis for a system of government."
"Look here -"
"Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not some old watery tart handing out swords."
"Be quiet!"
"Look if I was to go around saying I was emperor just because some old man threw a scimitar at me they'd lock me away."
"I order you to be quiet!"
"Oh ordering me now are you? Hey what? Violence corrupting the system! Official violence inheriting the system! I'm bein repressed! I'm bein repressed!"
"Bloody peasant!"
"Did you see that? Did you see him repressing me?"

What a great scene

[Edit]Just realised that DBmad has changed his name to Experienced DB and as he is quoting the email I have to assume that it was sent to him. So, although whoever sent it was wrong to pretend to be someone else and send the email, they do have a certain point

It's actually far more eloquent than I would expect from a spammer, and crafty enough to try and prevent any dialogue on the forums.

I don't think anyone but moderators should be able to add to the codebase anyway. We have a code snippets board to post in. TGC could have someone check it once in a while and post what needs to be posted in the code base and lock, delete, or leave the rest.
