I recall at one point EoC indicated he had written a primitive AI system to post as him and that it needed training to be better at posting.

Primitive enough that he wrote it post by post. I think that was right before he was training himself to be a Texan.
That didn't work out either.

Texans are bred not learned.
I wonder if implants were involved.

I'd forgotten about that run of idiot posts, thanks for the reminder and good laugh "pardner."
Meanwhile, whenever there is some sort of conversation like this, and especially within this particular thread, it sure seems to me that a flurry of very agitated appearing spam posts appear elsewhere within FPG's sub-forums.
They arrive, of course, under the screen names we know David uses and at times that are convenient for one who lives in New Zealand. These are not the work of spam bots, web crawlers or whatever else puts spam in a chat site. These are the direct efforts by David Jackson to fulfill his vow to take down FPG. Well, guess what, it is not going to happen David. Why not put the time to better use and see if you can get a job? Not that you will ever find one with as much lax oversight or absence of a requirement for some accountability as you enjoyed at the University.
Ok, but the Spam-O-Matic stats show that most of the spam is getting blocked. Fake website traffic bots are readily available, so it is plausible that one person could do it. The hypothesis that one person is personally writing each and every spam posts seems questionable at best.
Perhaps the best solution would be to find a moderator Eric would accept. For example, some diamond stud of the pen collecting world, a person with no commercial interests.
I actually believe that Eric doesn't know there is any sort of a problem

I note this morning it is hard to find the spam among all the bumped sales posts.
I am fed up with all the automated spam that fills out genuine pen threads. Not a sales area. I see an interesting topic, look, and there is an automated post telling me to buy something.
Offhand, I don't remember how someone identified Empty of Clouds as a spurious poster in the sales forum, but I don't bother with that forum.
Making you fed up is his stated objective.

I wonder why we never get any crypto spam on this thread...

Hi lilycollins. You were so close to bumping the right thread with your spam.
In the immortal words of Maxwell Smart: “Missed it by that much!”
"A truth does not mind being questioned. A lie does not like being challenged."
That’s quite the tantrum EoC went on in the general forum.
Funny his spambots never seem to find this thread though.
