This area of design space is odd. This card is better than Dosan's Oldest Chant, although that was Kamigawa. It's also Kiss of the Amesha minus {u} and minus one card draw.

Schpammers are back...

Are the spammers becoming Dadaistic? It feels like the spambots have become disenchanted with their never-ending rants and have begun to fight against established board posts through anti-art cultural works.

Bwahaha. Yes. For as long as it remains at this level, I guess it's not much of a hassle. If it gets more intense, I'll add more anti-spam measures.

(Hear that, spammers? Spam will not be tolerated; I will continue to add anti-spam measures for as long as you're targeting this site.)

Toys should be kept in the area where the family lives, not only in the child's room. An acceleration trigger powers up the motor to hurl discs from a 20-disc magazine. We also give you a brief description of the toys to be sure that you get a picture what they are all about.

Wow. Now the spambots have evolved artistically to Postmodernism, shining a light on modern consumerism and exposing it for the flat culture that it encourages. I'm really hoping this leads to a "Pop Art" movement that revels in the mendacity of mass production. Maybe some direct quotes from a Brenda Star, Reporter comic strip? Bill Griffith's Zippy would be very pleased with the progress being made here.

I look forward to that. It's much better than the (rather unusual) Humanistic spam that has been plaguing Multiverse recently. I'm curious what the point of these are, since they possess no way of embedding themselves into our computers. They don't even post URLs. Unless... they're meme spam!

The ones with URLs are getting automatically blocked. Only the probes are getting through. And getting increasingly strange.

Thank you for that fine example of what I was saying :)

Oh. Wow. Minimalism. I'm stunned. I took the opportunity to throw this through Google Translate and got this response in English:

drinking
absinthe
doll
waving

Which vaguely reminds me of the works of e.e.cummings. Seeing that "l(a" was printed in 1958, I'd say that we're right on target following the evolution of writing. This bot continues to surprise me, considering none of the other ones on Multiverse have been this strange.

Is there some way of casting Lure targeting this thread? It would be interesting to watch the evolution of spambots and their development of culture.

In order to bring some relevance back to this discussion, I love the artwork on this card.

Because this thread amused me, I made a blog post about it called Spambots, and the evolution of modern writing. It's mostly just me setting up, then reposting this thread on my blog, with some minor editing touches. Still, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it.

Yay! And thank you for the kind words :) The spam is indeed just amusing, and it'll be interesting to see where it goes.

For those who like the art on this card, you can see the larger version of it in a post by the artist, here.

Why do the spambots like this card so much?

Maybe they're following the image link?

I don't know. Maybe I linked it from somewhere. Or someone else did.

Lol. They're back.

At least the spam trapping seems to be working.
