I have just been browsing the web site of TalkAlgarve and have noticed they have a lot of Russian ones!

A lot of Russians log onto my backgammon site. Nodar Gagua - a Georgain, got their interest after winning the 2004 Mind Sports Olympiad events.

I have browsed our members' web sites and haven't found one Russian one. I am curious, is their a genuine Russian interest in the Algarve or is it simply a means of promoting a Russian web site?

I recently spotted a 'suspect' web site posted by a member that is no longer a member - Steen saw them off

Hi Michael,

The Russians that register in forums with a URL in their signature does it to increase search engine ratings. I delete 3-4 every week.
