Well I'd say it's a toss-up between Fuck The Infidels and Edwin's Pleasure Hub. Or perhaps they could be combined.

EdwinFucksTheInfidels.com

Jesus God, it's beautiful. Go reserve the domain name sharpish, Agent, while I phone a few stripclubs. We'll do a pilot video feature worthy of Dirk Diggler himself.

Wow, Kikizo really will be going in a new direction.  When you said there would be more videos I never imagined that.  More of a niche demographic I'd say though rather than diversifying within your current audience. 

I suppose Agent seems to be vouching for you. :D

All joking aside, it would make absolutely perfect financial sense to make a porn site. Doesn't mean we'll do it, but the numbers would add up. You gaming diehards love your T&A :)

Sure, but perhaps not with you as the star.  Not that I'm doubting your pornstar potential, just sayin..

Removed some spam. Posted by a staggering 23 different spammer accounts. No idea if this is automated or being done manually for god knows what reason.

Wow, feel the power! Maybe too much power for one man to have?  :D

Won't matter then how many spammer accounts there are, as soon as a blatent spam thread gets created the banhammer will do what it was destined to do.

The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Banhammer.

You need to leave this quote with the spammers as you lower the banhammer:

“I am the punishment of God...If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you".

As administrator of the-magicbox.com, I can assure you that most spammers are automated bots.  The way I deal with them is threefold:

1. - Create a question and answer for the registration process.  My question is: "Do you agree to fill out the 'favorite games' section of your profile after confirming your account via e-mail?"  The only proper answer is 'yes".  If they do not answer or answer something else, their registration is denied.

2. - All new members are approved by me before they can post.  They go into a special cue set up just for that which I check a few times a day.  If the "favorite games" section of their profile doesn't have anything in it (I don't care if it is one game or a hundred), then I delete them.  Otherwise I approve them and they are free to post.  Also, the forum names must be somewhat comprehensible.  I wouldn't confirm a member with a name like Xiaobonnie or the like. 

3. - The new member's first post cannot be a new thread.

Haven't had a spam post in a loooooooong time.  We use vBulletin forum software.

Such technical matters are above my ken, but this may be of use to the bossman. Cheers, Joe.

He's been doing a whole lot of shit, just not in the public eye. A week and a bit to go.

Well, I have been doing thangs... but then Ballad of Gay Tony turned up today, so now all I'll be doing is playing that.

Sorry guys.

Guys - as a short term measure I've changed new registrations so that they require admin approval. This should hopefully put a stop to all spam for now. We're going to give the forums some fresh attention once our relaunch is all up and running, this Thursday Oct 29.
