At least two people have been banned in the past few months. One was an individual who insisted on talking about his revolutionary nanotechnology that was somehow connected to ancient Egyptian knowledge. The other was a possibly more reasonable individual who strongly did not play well with others. There have likely been more. Also keep in mind that sufficiently mentally disturbed people sometimes resemble spammers. So it is possible that some that have been banned for robotic spamming were actually humans.

Shoga, right? Just found his posts; they are amusing.

Yes, although it seems that some of the early ones have been deleted (including the one where he wrote E=MC, and claimed that his ideas had been stolen by a famous rapper.)

Jay-Z, to be specific, IIRC.

Huh. Same initials as me. Obviously further evidence of a conspiracy.

I deal with the physics of astral physics. I deal with the calculable astral dimension of time and space.

Who are these sorts of people? What is their background?
