Just wondering, when browsing a topic I don't see all comments, instead I see their topic names and I have to click for each one to see what a person have wrote.

Is this something new they've implevented or is it just me? lol ..... I'm not a fan of that future :/ Because its take time to load its comments :(

    You probably followed a link with a "mode" querystring in there, changing the forum options (display modes). Use the options button underneath "add reply" and "new topic" and set the display mode back to standard :)

    dude don't quote the bots. They do this to game google search by spamming links everywhere. Requoting them is just what they want.

    Right.
    Please do not respond to or quote spam bot posts.
    Hit the report button on the lower left corner, any available forums mods will clean up.

    While we are on the subject, I'm not sure if the aged registration form is the cause of the bots or if they are actual people registering.
    Can any of the UWE folks respond on this? I've also posted a request on getsatisfaction: <a href="http://getsatisfaction.com/unknownworlds/topics/uwe_forums_bot_spam_from_a_volunteer_mod" target="_blank">http://getsatisfaction.com/unknownworlds/t...a_volunteer_mod</a> although I don't know if they still use this.

    As a forum mod I can only ban per user, not per IP address. An upgrade to the mod tools would be most welcome.
    It's a bit like whack a mole at the moment:
