OK, I like the theory that these posts come from a Kenku, but the question is... why?

I feel like the kithkin would have a nightmare of a strike zone.

I saw one example where a brand new user wrote a meaningless post, waited for someone to respond, and then edited their original post to quote the response, sneaking a link into the quote.

Don't ask me why they didn't just quote one of the many posts before theirs in the thread...

The mindweft would make for great coordination, true.
Brion Stoutarm would be one heck of a pitcher.
Pretty much any creature with reach or flying would be a good bet.

I think it's pronounced "Hwa". I don;t think MTG can pull off that particular abott and costello routine.

I edited this thread to delete the first post.
Originally it read
"If you were making a baseball team of Magic: The Gathering creatures, who's in your nine?
Is it just me, or does Bruse Tarl look like an 1890s Barnum circus strongman who'd hawk strength tonic patent medicines on the side?
"
This was actually a quote from another user. Once people responded, the OP was edited into spam.
Now you know why this thread doesn't make any sense and what kind of sense it used to make.

I KNEW IT. Sneaky editing spambots.

I was very confused, though, when I got an email just now saying: Topic reply notification - "phương pháp giúp trẻ chậm kể"

You get emails when there's a post in threads you've posted to? Is that a function on the forums or do you need a 3rd party extension for that?

It's a forum setting. It's under User Control Panel -> Board preferences -> Edit posting defaults -> Notify me upon replies by default. That will by default "subscribe" you to every thread you post in, which should give you emails when anyone else posts there. If that doesn't work, there might be some other settings you have to tinker with to enable emails in general.

You can also subscribe to threads in other ways, like checking the "Notify me when a reply is posted" box when writing a post, or clicking "Subscribe topic" at the top of a thread.
