MemberOvomorph01/1/2012I am so glad i am not the only one....cause I was so confused for a while?....can only be the work of a hacker....lol...
Mind u I was getting so bored of the ongoing speculations...most threads a recap of some earlier boring shit thread ...over and over and over....the subject exhausted to the point that u read a paragraph twice...cause u doze of halfway threw reading them the first time....i mean most of these topics has been done to death....NO!..... beyond fucking death!
I have speculated the plot myself and found some interesting threads to comment on... their was some very original and excellent ones!...but seriously the majority was not...i think maybe this hacker or joker did us all a favor....it's a new year and a clean slate....5 months and 1 week to go!

Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/1/2012yeah 5 months 1 week of tripe like... Shaw gives birth to alien, urns become eggs etc.

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012I agree Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84 ›
But I don't mind a clean slate either....perhaps some people will think twice about the stupid threads they create and rather shut-the fuck up before they start discussions about obvious nonsense that even a fucking retard on crack will notice....not gonna mention any names!

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012@ snorkelbottom
yeah we both sick of tripe...lol....i suppose we all guilty to some degree and i don't see anything really changing in the new year...those old threads will probably be rediscussed with new forum members....perhaps I should just give these forums a break for a while...it's getting to the point where the speculations are going in circles!

Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/1/2012Depends on a whether a new trailer would clarify some points or just add to the confusion I suppose.

Juxtapose
MemberOvomorph01/1/2012yeah....i think a new trailer will really clarify a lot...or at least it will spawn some new fresh discussions...assuming their will be another trailer!...in the event that their is...it will only be around in another few months...some more interviews with Ridley and the cast will also be interesting....I don't mind not learning anything more about the plot itself...maybe just their experiences in filming it....that alone will be great....I think we already dangerously close to unraveling the plot....i don't wanne spoil it for myself!

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012The plot? Just a wild guess, but: Humans travel a vast distance, to coordinates ( discovered along with other evidence,) indicating an ancient extraterrestrial presence on Earth. Instead of finding benevolent, super-advanced aliens, who accelerate their evolution a second time, they discover beings who interfered with human development for coldly calculated, malevolent reasons. All kinds of freaky, scary shit ensues when the humans get mixed up with the alien's equally malevolent technology, and nearly ( if not ) all of them, die violently before the credits roll.

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012@ artyoh
I hate to say it but....yeah that about sums it up so far!
But the plot of aliens does'nt do much better:
Mining crew on board a ship hears distress/warning from unknown planetoid....sets down on company orders...investigates planet....one crew member gets face raped by unknown organism/ crew member gets ill during lunch and his stomach explodes/ stomach contents unleashes an evil acid bleeding abomination that kills everything on site until their is only one crew-member that survives...crew member out smarts and kills alien!....viola!
But still I wont dispute:....that movie was a landmark in film history! It was all the things I did not mention in the brief synopsis that made it special!
I am hoping Prometheus will be the same....it's those little intricacies that will make it rise above other movies of a similar genre...to be honest and serious.... the synopsis in Prometheus already sound way more epic!
Returning to topic discussion....how about those Chiffon wedding dresses...lol

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012i rather like the cut and style, but I am wondering if they have those in a blushful pink....? ;)

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph01/1/2012OK back on topic...
...a user who called himself..."newpiguet" who must have registered this name late into last night ... made hundreds if not more Posts all spamming the site with ads for a retail business...I noticed the exact same thing this morning Snorklebottom.
They can all be cleared out using the back end for this sight {pretty sure of this} and I imagine they all will, slowly, as BugHunter gets to them.
Just FYI.

Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/1/2012its obviously someones idea of a joke, but I'm missing the punchline... what has this site gotta do with selling austrailian clothing???

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012are maybe chinese people payed 1 cent for every 1000 post they do ...between 1600 people who read this forum they will find an idiot who buy something and then they did repay themselves .
we pay for who falls into that traps .

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012More serious than a Joke I say "Snorky", allow me to explain.
It is all about the Traffic.
Prometheus is a Hot Topic on the net right now so discussions about it are generating a lot of internet traffic {unique visits to those web sites from unique and new IP Addresses}.
So spammers are attracted to this because some of them get paid to steal/ direct / re route traffic however they can to wherever they are being paid to.
By blasting a web site randomly with all kinds of posts like that many people will click through even if by accident generating traffic for the spammers target web site and sometimes even a sale or 2, which is the entire reason for anyone doing it to begin with. other than just causing mischief.

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012Well I for one am glad that those threads have receded into the background, I thought the site had gone commercial and was sitting here going O K AY what now? Reading up, I certainly hope I am not the one generating such animosity from Juxtapose. I like his in your face non filtering attitute, keeps it poppin!

Micro changes in air density
MemberOvomorph01/1/2012Yes I quit following the site for several days. Thought it was gone commercial

Juxtapose
MemberOvomorph01/1/2012Thanks Ghost Solitaire...but to be honest...i myself am probably guilty of silly speculation....but if their is like 20 different threads speculating about the same old crap....it get's tiring....suppose we all so eager to hear fresh news....I think it would be healthy (for me) to just forget about Prometheus for a while and wait until their is something exciting happening in the news section to discuss....even if it's just another interview.

MemberOvomorph01/1/2012the real reason is SEO spam. Notice the links they put to websites with the words they want to rank for as the link.
The problem is this forum does verify registration by email. So bots like Xrumer and Sick Submitter just come in and post a lot of crap.
Seems it just happened again. They need to fix the registration process, because it is only going to get worse.

davidkyle
MemberOvomorph01/1/2012that's going to be a lot of keystrokes when other spammers learn when a popular site like this has such a lax registration process, and this place starts getting pounded by the bots they all use.
