What is AdBot?
« on: March 19, 2012, 01:33:09 am »
I have been seeing a weird thing on the site.... 

Name- AdBot

Content- Nothing
 
Is this just a post that has been removed?

Or has something changed??

AdBot: 'Advertising Robot'; likely an FC paid advertiser, automated - is not replying to posts.

One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

I believe the administrator puts them there to help pay the three dollars for the 30 posts per month.

If you click on the "ADVERTISE HERE" link at the bottom of the post, it will make more sense to you.  It shows the website where advertisers go to purchase their ads.  I guess any of us could purchase an ad there if interested.
