    Spam! Reported the first one an hour ago. Makes a fairly legit post. If you check Laura had editited out the link here: http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=223672

    The thread you pointed to, prolly the same link earlier edited. Threads have pretty much the same flavour.

    Cheers..

    True that they may be spam, but why go back several years?

    Yes. That was spam. Thanks for reporting sikvik.

    They come and do a search to try to find a relevant thread(s). It doesn't matter how old it is. A huge thing is what's pulled up on a search engine. So if someone searches google, it'll pull up an MG post with that spam link.

    When in doubt, report.

    I thought it might be a celebration like "dig up an old thread" day.
