    I'm guessing they do it from the RSS feeds.
    It has to be automated

    It's a custom script made for vbulletin - I tested something like this in my earlier days.

    If you notice it also scraps from http://www.pbnation.com

    And it's plastered with porn ads. Thanks for the warning.

    Please remember that some of us access the net from public places with 90 year old librarians looking over our shoulders waiting to boot us.

    Wonder how they got the stuff.

    Because I don't think they can just grab it from his MySQL database..

    Some people are sneaky!
