Hello. I'm a regular DM with about 8 years of DM'ing a game on a fortnightly basis. One thing I aim to achieve with my DM'ing is to keep improving the quality of my game. Reading threads on various RPG forums is good for that. I have also found podcasts do this well, although I am yet to find a podcast that is mainly advice about running a game.. At the moment the RPG podcasts I listen to are Fear the Boot, the WotC D&D podcast (very infrequent), Kicked in the Dicebags, Atomic Array, 2d6 feet in a Random Direction and RPG Countdown. I also have several episodes of the Podge Cast downloaded but I still haven't actually listed to an episode. Out of those Fear the Boot is probably the only one that offers DM advice, and a lot of times the discussion isn't really aimed at DM's, or the topic isn't really a DM topic. So, given that there are now a heap of RPG podcasts out there, there surely must be at least a couple aimed at DM's. So what ones would people recommend? I'd prefer D&D podcasts, but more generic RPG podcasts are ok. I'm more concerned that it is aimed at those running the game. please help thanks I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

I can't decide if this is somebody taking the time to write manual spam posts or is the bots have gotten clever enough to use/create actually relevant posts with a spam link at the end.
Oddly enough I can't decide which of those two possibilities is worse.

Oddly enough I can't decide which of those two possibilities is worse. I think the former rather than the latter because of the selecting of several of threads to cross post in. That’s some dedication Aaron

This is definitely spam. It looks like what their doing is scraping forums and posting copies of posts to other forums and adding their spam links. Pretty brilliant.

Yeah, it's pretty clever and makes me think of this XKCD strip. I can think of one trick they've missed though not sure I want to say what it is lest I provide them ideas.
