Yeah, no kidding. Darryl caught this and let me know about it. I think it is probably a way to "sucker" people in and get a lot of attention in that direction. Strange that the rest of the post seems so relevant.
All Cacti are succulents, but not all succulents are Cacti
I see that that type of spam is catching up with cactiforum as well. We have had some problems in my Clan's page for an on-line game I play. (also recently we lost all of our gold as someone hacked in and transferred it to the leaders... I guess in some sort of attempt to make us stop beating everyone in the game lolz)
Here's to you, all you insidious creatures of green..er I mean cacti.
