Talking Well, hello

Hi,

I see people all over the place on this forum, like Turkey and China. Well, I am Hungarian (just to introduce more diversity into the mix))).
I am here to mingle and ask questions that most likely will make look stupid but I am a newcomer, so I hope it's all right with everybody.

Re: Well, hello

Good to see you here.

I feel Hungary is a big market for IDN's.

Hopefully too, it will be hit less hard than other countries by the economic crisis.

I'm bullish on Hungary.

It is always possible but this posting lacks a Bot profile in my book.

For a start now they generally post three or four times, invariably have links to some kind of promotion. This member doesn't even have a signature.

Here is what I found suspicious:

1. "I see people all over the place" -- typical bot 'hello all' verbiage.
2. "like Turkey and China" -- Except there hasn't been a single member from Turkey on here active in a long time, making the first choice of Turkey not a logical one.
3. Not a mention of domain names or anything specific to this forum.

That said, if this isn't a bot post, I appolotize to the original poster.

Re: Well, hello

Join date Jan. Plus posting in the correct 'IDN Newbies' forum. I would say it is not a bot.

Well, unless its one on from Viral Marketing. Perhaps Paranoia Marketing?

Might even be effective. Everyone is talking about it!
