    I hope we figure something out soon. I'm getting tired of deleting spam and banning mo fos from this site every time I log on.

    Yup, I'm doing 6-10 per day, and I'm sure Earl and Andy are too.

    Still waiting to hear back from Mr IT.COM.

    Edit: and if you need at the bottom of the main page "welcome new member" and the nickname is random characters, just pre-banninate it. I'm noticing that they're creating accounts and then coming back 8-10 days later and posting their spam. Probably trying to get around other forums' "no posting for 7 days" limits.

    I see I'm not the only one pre-banninating visitors that show up on the bottom of the main page...

    There's many more of them than us, but at least we can have fun playing whack-a-mole.

    Those have already been banninated. Guess they can still log in, but not seeing any spam from them...

    I've been taking the u= links and selecting various users with random characters and banning them. The technique seems to be create an account, wait a few days, then spam. So I pre-ban (when I have time) and that seems to have helped.
