Default You know PR is worthless when...

This guy on http://forums.digitalpoint.com/ has a site that went from PR0 to PR8, he has 32 backlinks and the site has only been up for just over a month. The owner of the site goes on to berate those who tell him that it's a bug, calling them jealous and questioning their IQ, it's rather pathetic.

Anyway you can read the whole thing here:
http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=72002

This is his site here:
http://www.democracyforums.com/

Here is the proof of PR8 and that he's not spoofing:

Pentarix, I read that as well. I spend some time at DP, and in fact was one of the first to join there when Shawn Invited me to when he first set it up.

The guy has a PR8, or does he I have looked at this, and am pretty sure I know what he has done. I am not going to post it on an open forum though

Interesting! Well since I don't intend to do anything illegal, I don't really need to know what he's doing or how, as long as I know he's not legit, as I suspected. Thanks for the reply! btw do you use the same name over there, yes or no?

For those who don't know, http://forums.digitalpoint.com is a good site to check out! I haven't joined up but I've been lurking there for the past couple of months, some very interesting posts and some are even worth reading. :P

Yes, I use the same username everywhere (sometimes OWG) but either with spaces Old Welsh Guy (as in DP forum where I was a founding member when Shawn first set it up) or as in here without spaces.

The only place I use a different username is on my rugby forum and other rugby forums.
