Part of the problem is that people keep replying to them. Bots fish for active boards by scanning the responses to threads they start.

The constant changing of birthdays, no posts, and links to random sites in their sig and website lead me to believe this is possibly a spam bot of some kind.

Indeed. Also, that "X, Y" pattern of semirandom Interests/Occupation/etc is another good giveaway.

That bot has made 5 different posts. All of them spam.

You know it's fail when the bot can't even use tags properly :V

While I'm not sure what that is, I don't think it's spam...
