Bay 12 is notorious for its pun derails. It's never just one pun; you make a pun, at least a page of them are bound to follow. This is the everstanding monument, so we may never forget what great and terrible things we, as a community, are capable of.

I wonder why the kitchen spambots persist - I doubt many of the advertisements pan out. I can imagine a spammer at his computer, rouxing the time he wasted, completely fried.

Maybe they're just watching us ham it up with our cheesy retorts to their spambots..

I believe that it's for Google rankings. They don't care whether you click on the link or not, they just want Google's bots to find it on a trusted site like the Bay12 Forums.

I think you're wrong, for recent rankings at least.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I make a single pun, and look what bay12 cooked up while I wasn't looking.

Consider it this way; Somewhere out there there's someone that thinks Dwarf Fortress' community is significant enough to spam.
