Fake Closed Beta Key Giveaway Thread

Inspired by the 10+ pages of obvious bot responses in this thread:  http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/399036/Closed-Beta-Key-Giveaway-Day-Six-Today.html

 

Curious to see if any will post here.  Maybe this is a tactic that MMORPG.COM can use in the future to combat such obvious abuses and cheating.

 

 

Edit:  Growing past 10 pages now.  Simply amazing.

    Yeh I'm amazed just how many people respond in that.

    Either a lot of very stupid people who shouldn't be allowed in beta, or bots, who shouldn't be allowed in beta :P

    Yeah I think it's great to get new people to the site and posting for the contest but bots and account spammers are not welcome.

    No really, why do people even want to enter beta of a trading card game ?!

    Thought this is MMO site.

    By the ammount of comments on this thread I'd say there aren't many bots out there

    Why would anyone use a bot to post one word in a thread? It's not that hard to check back here once a day and post in the new thread.

    So they can multiple accounts which gives them a higher chance of winning a key.

    Well, first it was a MMORPG site, but when those started to go extinct they broadened it to include just about any sort of online game, from MOBA's, MMOFPS, heck, even D3 which makes almost no sense at all in light of the sites moniker.

    It's pretty much transformed into a general gaming site and only a matter of time before they start including Madden NFL and most everything else on it.

    So why not trading card games, it's online right?

    Maybe they should just change the name of the site to "OG" - Online gaming, and leave it at that.

    Edit: to the OP's point, just looked at that thread, amazing how many bot responses it's getting, you are correct, no way for an honest poster to actually win a key.

    This is sad...I mean its unfair cuz there are ppl like me that made account just for the beta key giveaway but i don't have multi accounts to have more chance of winning, so i am totally disappointed after i read this and i saw what is going on...Its just not fair! :(  I want beta key so much too but i don't have the luck :(

    If some1 has spare key please share it :) 

    P.s. Awesome site btw never had a chance to take a peak.
