About the chinese topic "HI。。I am in China ,we want a test with your country"
Its not a bot. Ive seen this site before. It has many videos of ror games from chinos. There are at least 4 huge chinese places where they play aoe/ror with at least 30k players active. The most famous chinese zone is CGA which has an average of 5k players online at weekends. Most times they play Hill Country / Tool Rush or not / Patch 1.0
Garena (www.garena.com also has many players (around 2k) but most of them are from vietnam, not from china. Garena is easier to install cuz it has support to english unlike the chinese zones.

Just because the site is legit doesn't mean it is not a bot or it isn't advertising.
Now you guys know that Asia actually has a huge gaming community. We'd have even more AoE/RoR players if the damned Koreans weren't so caught up with stupid Blizzard games.
Looks like I'm one of the few non-China players who know Chinese. It'd be fun to play with them, but too bad I can't now.
Chinese websites and forums usually have weird URLs and tonnes of sleazy-looking adverts, which may look like excellent malware-spreaders to us, but are perfectly normal to them. I doubt that the fellow who posted was a bot too.

Unfortunately it was bot like in the post which make it hard to tell if it was human or not for me. Also it is made harder when what is standard in China seems to me to be dodgy.
