It's now become a full-time job deleting the spam and banning ip's so, sorry but, I've given up.

I have PM'd Bluemoon about it but no reply as yet.

Until he changes the new account registration to a more secure system the Spam threads and posts will have to stay up.

No wonder this Country is in its current state with that kind of attitude. :mad:

Fair play, it's pretty ridiculous.

Thanks to the mods that have to delete on a daily basis.

I second this, have also PM'd the big guy with no response, too much hard work and easily gotten rid of.

Let's hope BM responds shortly.

I said I'd never do it, but I'll volunteer for modding duties if that's going to be any help.

I saw to that lot. Don't want to do that every day though. My sleeping habits have been daft as of late and I've noticed those kitchen spambots appear in the wee hours of the morning, I've been nipping those in the bud as and when they appear. Totally unviable in the long run though

Only issue is extra barriers to registration puts off new posters, although admittedly not as much as the general air of this place resembling the sticky, stale air of the morning after a washed up gay swingers' coke fuelled party when most of the revellers have gone home and the few that remain are incoherently stumbling about, occasionally pausing to insipidly beat their tired members while sighing and staring with bloodshot eyes out at the greying light of dawn.

Just had a cursory look at the mod action history and it makes for an amusing read, I didn't realise quite how much shit there was being deleted, admirable effort though chaps

Before the last few days it was fairly manageable if annoying, a few threads a day nuked as and when they popped up by the first mod to see them. Ridiculous amount the last couple of days which has mainly been cloudy valiantly trying to stem the flow, it's like fighting hydra

I would just cancel all registration to stop it.

After all it's only a few sad cunts that post on here anyway.
