AlfaBB Bot
What's up with all these posting from the "AlfaBB Bot" showing up as new postings? It's hard enough to filter through the message I want to read as it is. I thought Simon turned it off so that we wouldn't see them unless we wanted to go to that Forum.

Sorry guys. I made some software changes and forgot about "our" friend the bot.
I think I got it fixed now so please let me know if bot results are showing up anywhere else other then inside of its own forum.
While I know some of you think that the bot is useless it actually provides a few bucks here and there. Which in turn helps to keep this place going.

This thing is pissing me off as well.
I've also expressed my dislike for the bot in this thread.

I like to use the RSS feature on the site (basically the same as a new post link). Right now it's not so bad, quite a few less postings, the page actually started with a BB member. But they're still there.
