So I wondered why these bots were not posting links in their posts...
Derp, they are in the quoted text, which is a nice trick cause it means people can't see the links when they quote the bot (especially so when we do not have multiquoting enabled).
Now here is the part I don't understand. The links are disguised to be totally hidden to normal users. My assumption is that they are placing them on TA to boost up search engine rankings (I doubt this even works that well).

Huh, I didn't notice those links. I wondered why the quoted text was in a bigger sized font than normal quotes are. Well spotted.
Yeah, it would definitely be SEO spam. |

They say that the chances of a woman getting raped on a college campus are 1 in 4. I say the chances of getting raped are 4 in 4 if you're dating a black guy. |
