I could be wrong..

but..

New user joins (no intro - ok not that unusual), 1 post only, drops this in: http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic15766.php&highlight=

On the same day another new user joins (no intro), 1 post only, another pro penguin post (See 'Artinct's' contribution to the thread): http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic14975.php&highlight=

Am I being cynical or is this the same person? Have we had a visitation from the penguins?

Oh, by the way both post within 15 minutes of each other :wink:

Sorry Artinct if this is some freaky coincidence.

Hmm ..... smells kinda fishy to me too :?

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

Unlikely. Arctinc says:
I had figured out how it was done by watching the demo on Penguinmagic.

Unlikely a Penguin would say that.

Or, indeed:
The gimmick is quite easy to make with access to the right materials.

Seems the low life's of the world have discovered how easy it is to SPAM the hell out of forums. There is one small Canadian magic forum I belong to that has been getting hit left & Right for months now, with porn site and medical type ads via people who "join" the forum... their only posts being trash of this sort.

Personally I think most Penguins should be roasted over a low flame, sauteed in a nice peach brandy and served with rice and perhaps fava beans... They are an ignorant, dirty little bird.

If it's any consolation, the post in the first link has been edited, locked and SinBinned :wink: .

PS The IP addresses are completely different so I doubt they are one and the same person.

Reported IP addresses are easily faked and changed, so it could still be the same person.
