How should we deal with forum SPAMmers?

[Ken Cheng]

If we were ever to find the forum SPAMmers, how should we deal with them?

I don't think any of the options you've listed can be applied, so I don't get the point of this thread.

Just fantasize. I do it all the time.

You'd be horrified if you knew what I sometimes imagine doing to you guys.

i wonder why this sudden spam boom. remember it was spammer free for very a long time. spam filter outdated? they they discovered this forum by some insiders who might themselves be spammers?

all new threads cannot be posted until approval by moderator.

This is my most hated feature in a forum. I prefer the post I posted to appear right after I click submit. I don't want to be kept waiting and wondering when my post will appear. To have this feature, and still have the forum function well, we need moderators to be around all the time.

Kenny mate, you need professional help badly.

Not only that, we moderators would need to be here ALL DAY to approve posts.

That would be forum suicide.

CAPTCHA for every post.

up to date spam filter.

Then again, getting the opportunity to take out my mountains of frustrations on these SPAMmers in the most sick, depraved, ways would do *much* good for my mental health and forum harmony.

WAY better than taking it out on "innocent" people, right?

Nah...just for certain living people to die and for some imaginary people to fade from collective human memory.

Filter out the registration process, stop the spambots from being able to register accounts in the first place.

I say we should just go find these people and murder them in their homes.

How could you miss the one where you get ripped into 5 pieces by 5 horses? Or the one where they slice your flesh off of you one piece at a time?

Good ideas. Let me make a note of them.

[wkeej]

looks like no solution.

My guess is that they're spambots and not real people. Unless you want to kill the people that made the spambots, then yeah. But that won't really solve our current problem.

If it were some sick heads creating those SPAM bots, beware that you're just going to your killer rather than the other way round - in view that they are sick enough to consistently conjure those SPAMbots as though they have completely no life.

Or watch Lawrence Ng as Zhang Wuji.
