    I suppose this is the hard part of the game.. XP

    Sorry @Shandyr but I simply can't let commercial posts lay in forum... you have to be quick and nimble and fast and swift and rapid and... stuff. That's it. :|

    It's from a long time ago, do that increases the points?

    @CrevsDaak +1

    Wow!

    1) How did that bot survive?!

    2) How did u find it?!

    I'll count it for u cos it's a link that helped us catch a bot, which is all that matters, even if it's old.

    Also I've decided that if I see a notification because I am also the thread owner, I will credit a bot-kill, cos there is no sense for me to allow a bot to survive longer than necessary to wait for another mod to ban it.

    @Heidrich I certainly don't know why it survived. I've found it because I was searching for an old spambot, and it was like in page 280+ IIRC.

    lols when @Shandyr tags me, @Metalloman gets it, when Shandyr tags Metalloman, I get it. :D

    By the way, if Shandyr helped you find the bot (and it didn't post on its own profile), then it should be a +5, as per the rules.

    this just reminds me what great mods we have that I can't score a single point. maybe I should be up in the middle of the night searching since activity during america night is at a low :)

    @Shandyr + 2

    @Dee we have our first badge winner!

    Congratz to Shandyr!

    TOO EASY! if it worth 5 points he should be at 9!!

    To be fair, stealth bots are pretty rare, that's only the 3rd I've seen since I became a mod, and they are hard to spot, thus the +5 bonus.

    @Heindrich, add other points to shandyr for the sexy one ban. ;P

    Yeah, these are rare indeed. :)

    @Shandyr; Congratulations!!! (even if searching for ancient relics is a little like cheating...)
