Hi everyone, I registered here just this week.
Forgive me for asking, but I was wondering if you could show me any particularly relevant posts that I should have a read of first, so I can get involved here?
Thanks very much! Mike Gladstone

Yo! You're into Lugaru? Check out the
Wiki!
I'm sure you haven't overseen the awesome
devblog!
And considering the forums... Well, what are you interested about? What we suggest for Lugaru 2? What kind of fanfics are around? Hilarious screenshots? Give the search function a try!
Welcome!

Just wait a few hours and then try the 'View posts since last visit' off to the right
Though it wouldn't hurt to read some of the older stuff — just don't bump anything

I agree; either that or someone paid to troll forums.
I've been wondering if Szs315 might be up to the same thing.
No offense meant, but it just seems odd the way he's jumping all over shit, showing us stuff we've all seen (like movies and screens from the Wolfire site) and posting 8 times a day.
What's up with that?

It does, but theres no spam or evil links anywhere..

Yeah, and there are no hidden things here he could access by registering, so.. Whether bot or not does not really matter as long as he doesn't start posting pseudopr0n links and the like.

I am sure Szs315 is legit, just very enthusiastic.
This guy I am pretty sure is a bot and in a week will add a spam link to his profile. We will see.

If you're right, then I totally fell for it. What a failure at the internet I am. *sobs*

Yes, new users usually say "I love Lugaru" or somesuch.
I looked at mikegladsz's profile to check for spam, and noticed "activies : blogging". So I thought it'd be easy to check if it's a bot by googling "mikegladsz".
Well, it turns out there are "about 123 000" results.
All of them are forum profiles.
Just sayin'

Oh, yeah. Okay, it's a bot.

I surmise as much
EDIT: Wait- on Google results page 1, there's even this tiny board on UFO spottings and aliens and conspiracy theories that has
32 members; and most users ever online was (hold on) "2 guests, 1 member".
So when the mikegladsz bot joined, the members immediately created a whole thread of warm and hearty welcome, all "We are a very friendly community and love to hear from you." and such.
The world is cruel.
but I can't stop laughing!
