		<description>First off that site is fake. The profile is built using Family Guy references showing the person isn&#039;t giving real info but intending to use &quot;borrowed&quot; references and lines.

Second the owner is spamming the site across sites that hit the digg and reddit frontpage. They&#039;re literally spamming the comments with unrelated posts always linking to the site. These kind of spammers shouldn&#039;t be tolerated and shouldn&#039;t be encouraged.

Thirdly comments are heavily moderated to prevent people from exposing both 1 and 2.</description>
