The bad debt is the one you're going to owe me for moderating this thread. Pay up now, slacker!

Many books have been written to address just such a question.

Therefore, could you be more specific, please?

Bloody hell taken by spam before my morning coffee!

This makes me curious. Why would this person or bot, Agung, post this same question on forums all over the net, without advertising link or elaboration?

Perhaps someone seeking an answer would Google the words, generating hits to a particular website?

Odd.

Yeah, I wondered that as well. Then I assumed MTGuru deleted the link from
the OP. But then why didn't he delete the user?

Anyway, to answer Agung's question, a bad debt is when they break your legs.

It's when you can't pay for your cement shoes

It's a trick question. All debt is bad debt...but some debt is more bad than others.

If you're not 100% sure you've got spam, the safest thing to do is eliminate any links that violate forum policy and leave the message intact. In any case, it gives us all something to laugh about!

That could be it. It could also be testing of sophisticated software that will eventually act like a person. The first tests would be to see if they can register and post a simple message. Next up the line would be responses to the replies.

Russian programmers have been using sophisticated chat room software to "talk" to live people on singles sites. In that case, the motivation is to scam them out of money.

Untrue and incorrect. There are many forms of good debt, such that you can use what you owe as a tax write-off.

No!

Debt indeed can be a very profitable financial vehicle, and that's no secret.

As I earlier mentioned, many books have been written about debt, and so I was obliged to take the OP's question seriously.

Basically, however, please remember the saying, that it takes money to make money.

Oh, yeah, baby.

Awkward. Abrupt. Apropos of nothing. And, apparently, attempting ubiquity. Plus I feel like I should tip the waiter for my okroshka and blini.

This is probably gonna end up deleted with prejudice, folks. Looks like there's a class of 'bot out there I never though would happen soon. Guess we have to wake up and smell the spam.
