Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing myself actually.. =/  I thought 
maybe it had to do with that change, Matt had done to the forums.. to help 
keep the "spammers" from gaining PR from Google or whatever.. but, I could 
be wrong.. =/

It also *might* have to do with how active you were, *before* and such.. I 
dunno.. there for a while, "we" had a rash of users from waaay back...come 
back and start posting *more* then usually... and they seem to be spamming, 
rather then doing anything else..

It's all hard to say though Jeremy.. =/  It would be nice if some how, all 
this could/would be fixed though.. ;) =)  Thanks for choosing me as an 
example though.. hahaha.. =P  (Stands up, and takes a bow to the audience).. 
ok, I'm sitting down now.. =P
