While looking on the member list, the highest posting member is a "Article Bot", and this has a phenomenal number of posts compared to anyone else, yet i havent seen posts from Article Bot anywhere on the forums.

I'm just curious, what exactly is the Article Bot, and what is it's purpose?

i think its an automated thing that posts the news

 
I'm out of bed and dressed, what more do you want?

I always take life with a grain of salt, ... a slice of lemon, ...and a shot of tequila

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out

One more step to enlightenment ... but which way ?

There's a bit on the left menu with news sections, they haven't been updated in a few weeks and are being removed as the articlebot went crazy one day last month!
