This level of spamming is ridiculous. Add 2 or 3 regular contributors as forum mods with ability to lock/delete threads and related user accounts.

anyway,lets get back to the thread topic with an analogy:
suppose you have a store,and you have lots of customers visiting your store everyday,
realistically,not all the customers are real/generating revenue,though from outside it appears you are having a great business.
what would you do now! would you put a sign outside,stating 'only enter the store if you are a confirm buyer'!
or would you go one step further,and put a security guard outside and make sure,no one but actual buyer enters the store.
really! who does that !! people might even do the opposite..to get that popularity/traffic,even if it is fake.
Here is a screenshot to complete my analogy,see how it looks like from outside of the forum.

Now,if my point is clear to you,stop posting this kind of thread,you are spamming.... :p
Is it so hard to add a registration control to prevent bots from signing up and spam?
+1 for less spam!
Off topic -- Does anyone know where I can watch the first episode of season 7 of The Walking Dead?

I agree! and I nominate myself for the job.
As your new mod I promise you that you will never see a Nekro post ever again in this forum, I will ban every fake account of his and make sure to keep him away and until he passes all his classes. #Zamasuformod2016

Bump, since it's only spam on the first page. Come on Admins, do something......:mad::mad::mad:
I'm sure they have their own hidden forum and the question is either asked or is being discussed there.
I'm actually a moderator on their hidden forum but they don't feel comfortable letting me perform my services in this venueQuote:

Hi everyone,
My sincere apologies for the amount of Spam. Clearly the Spammers have breached our current defences.
I've changed some more of our registration settings to try and help prevent them, and have appointed another mod.
Thank you all so much for your patience.
Fantastic, Thank's for the pest control. The spammers actually started to outnumber us at one point!
It looks like they are starting to figure out the new defensive measures. Maybe they aren't bots but actual paid spammers. Those will be pretty tough to keep out.
thank you very much for your effort, we all hope that the changes will keep the bastards away.Quote:

Yeah I thought that earlier. Bots have obviously learned to answer "Bruce" ;)Quote:
