Or then it was a physical person who only wanted to share something... I don't know... but all wars have civilian casualties... :roll:

Considering the user is also sponsering a blog, I'll judge him as a SPAMBOT. (Dun dun dun)

It was probably a person, that just happened to add a Blog, which is sort of what the "Website" part of the Profile is for. Although, it also depends on what the content was about.

The strange typing, is most likely a language issue.

ES Games: sniper

Although, there is no sniper ES Game, so it is hard to tell if it was a member, or spam. :?

They also made some very odd post about not being able to post. Totally confusing and nonsense.

I've seen enough of those on the wiki to know when it's just spam. The wiki receives more nonsense than here.

I don't think it's a spambot, but an issue. Look at the two new users: Checknate (April 26th, 2011, 1:58 pm) and checknate9 (April 26th, 2011, 2:11 pm). if you look it lists the same games played etc. for each user. I think he/she joined twice (maybe after a mistake on the first?). Just thought you should now, but wasn't sure where to post it.

It's the same IP, but e-mail addresses are different, and with different usernames. It may be two persons using the same computer? I'll send PM and ask about it, but otherwise double accounts lead to a ban of one of them.

checknate9 answered my PM: it was a mistake, so I deactivated the other, checknate.

While I could use an iPhone, he deserves a swift and just ban. 8)

Is there an unconfirmed member named BluntMuffin? If so, delete this account, I happened to mess up the birthyear on that file, and it forced me to create a new one. You know, since I messed up they year...

Because I accidentally set the age too low to like, 10 or something and It needed me to get a parent signature and send it to you guys... Being nearly 17 I don't really need to do that. So, I created a new one, with the correct age (as far as I know.)
