May be I am too overreacting about this....but guys check out this images.








In the circles, there is a word 'BSU'...in all. It is from the teddy contest.

May be its a group or something...joined almost on the similar dates.

If this is a mistake I am extremely sorry to that group...Smile I just want to show this to all guys....Smile

Maybe they all went to the same school and perhaps they are using PSC as their reunion site? http://www.bsu.edu/web/edtec/inquiry/spreadsheet.html

Givin' the nature of the education I would feel a little uneasy if that were the case, Ace... Because it is not amusing at all when you think of all the codes you could use in pictures these days....

An image can not only hide visual codes, but also pixel codes. Having one curious entry every now and then.... that could be just like the spam in the forum. But having so many almost identical name entries using images as spam would have me worried. Especially since the PSC is trying to get more attention.

More likely it's an art/multimedia class

Well, if the are an art multimedia class then they are not going about it the right way. Part of education is promotion - and if I was in a class I would want to promote myself. So in stead of just posting images online, I would also try to generate a score of some kind, so an introduction on the forum would be one of the things that come to mind...

I would, anyway, if I was in an artclass.

First thing I thought of was a scav hunt. One of the things on the list from a couple years ago was to have your team post crazy stuff on another site's message board. I think there was also a chat thing too?

Anyway maybe these are all BSU forum and/or alumni people doing the same kind of thing? Could even be a frat/sorority prank.

Anyway I got curious so I ran a list of all of them:
acero_bsu@yahoo.com,
alvior_bsu, april_bsu,
aristonbsu,
aristonorbe_bsu,
aristonorb_bsu,
baguio_bsu,
Bsubulagadotcom,
bsu_aileen_cleofas,
bsu_i.t3,
bsu_jheysen,
bsu_jheysenp,
BSU_mariekris_BSIT,
BSU_MA_Baal,
buenbsu, buen_vd_bsu,
canary_bsu,
clairebarrot_bsu,
galdores_bsit_bsu,
Galdores_BSU,
gene_bsu,
hasmin<bsu>,
huge_bsu,
jaikan_bsu,
jHoLs_BSU,
JLO_BSU,
joanna marie_bsu,
julieanne14_bsu,
julieannebsu_14,
kuletsjolo_BSU,
loriebelle_bsu,
mariekris_BSU,
markanthony_bsu,
maryrose_bsu,
ma_baal_bsu,
nicro_bsusc,
noe_BSU,
rhicka_bsu,
rj_cabatayBSU,
SJ05_084_BSU,
winzlow_BSU


Now I'm thinking spammer.

Wouldn't be a prank on us specifically. It could be an initiation rite, a dare, an idea put up by drunk college kids, etc.


edit: Ahhh sometimes I miss Zen's crazy ramblings. Razz
