I for one keep wondering how many of their kitch-ens they actually SELL.

Does anyone know why it's been all kitch-en ads? Like, do they look at us and think "yes, they must be in need of kitch-ens to help in their epic struggle against AI overlords."

Or maybe they can be used as bribe items for the Burlusts or something.

I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

I was beginning to wonder if people actually still read those.. I suppose this answers that.

I wondered that myself, though I note that it sure as heck isnt this forum.... pretty much every forum I go to has been hit with these damn things fairly often, and they're ALWAYS the kitch-en ones.  Always.

The Spring RTS forum actually ended up censoring the word "kitchen". (Spammers promptly adopted character substitution, e.g. k!tchen)

A kitchen bot appeared! It acts like someone avoiding a word filter and talks of EX i am spam for london. Some sort of secret boss type of kitchen, I'd guess.

Those kitcheny kitcheners deserve a good kitchening up the kitchen.

The next step is to ban all humans as generally unhelpful.

Given some of the humans I've had the unfortunate luck to encounter...I could live with that.
On another forum I've gotten into a poo-throwing contest with the forum moderator.  Mostly its me going "wtf are you talking about, that's not what I said at all" as he continues to blindly reply to things without looking at the context.

Velociraptors somehow seem to get very poor service at every restaurant.

To the disadvantage of the restaurants.

Ah, the beloved straw-man.

Didn't even qualify as a straw man.  That would imply he was actually addressing my point.

It was more like "I never heard about this specific thing that is specific to this game we are on the forum for.  Also why would I go over to the unsecured servers, custom content is 90% crap" and he'd reply "What do you mean, you've never heard of Steam Workshop?"

Basically taking the verb of the first thing I said and combining it with an unsaid noun in the second statement and then tearing me a new one for his newly constructed implication.

This thread just got extra hilarious due to a new "censoring" thing that automatically changes the word kitch-en to "i am spam."  If you don't put punctuation in there. :D  It apparently retroactively adjusted them, which is doubly awesome.
