Default Err, fordforums rent-a-crowd?

was browsing the showroom on the hunt for some pics of members cars, when i had a look at the latest thread started by a member named 'LoudLS1' entitled 'Pics of what you drive'. Fair enough thinks i, so i click on the link to 'have a gander'. apart from bucknaked's au, a few things caught my attention:

this was followed by a post by ASTROdog (someone who registered in july 2003 but has only made 19 posts : ) whose username is in bold and custom user title is in white with a purple surround. i personally have never seen this person on the forums before but that may just be me. There have also been a fair few new members from the states appearing here and there on the forums, so im thinking that some form of US rent-a-crowd has been hired to help fill the void left by the australian members or something in an attempt to bring the forum back to the americans? perhaps im just speculating wildly here, but i find the whole thing smells a bit fishy and was wondering what other people make of it? i wouldnt be particularly perturbed either way and im not likely to collapse to my knees in a state of sorrow while clutching at my head and screaming 'whhyyyy?!!', im just curious

I think the "we left and not Johns doing his own thing" sort of thread has been done to death guys.
We have AFF now, the past is history, time to move forward.

Locked.
