The spammers have had a taste of the ol' pan of justice. Tell me if there's any I missed, there were a lot. I think we need to start banning again. I tried that on one, but I deleted the account too, and I can't remember if that nullifies the ban or not.

That thread has already been deleted, but thank you for mentioning it. When you're logged in, there is a "Report to moderator" function that you can use to inform us if there's spam or a user is acting inappropriately.

Sorry, but we can only combat spam here, not on other sites. And I would discourage posting the links to sites with spam, there's plenty of those out there on the World Wide Web, but if you put up a link to every spam site you came across, this thread would be full in seconds.

Folks, today/last night we got hit hard. ... Well... Harder than hard. Over 100 new users, all (or at least 99.9%) spam bots. I'm going to be deleting/banning like nuts today. If I hit anyone by mistake, please be patient while I try to get things cleared out. If you are hit with a ban, please contact me at mrdps2@hotmail.com. Include your user name in the subject line. In the body tell me the ban name that pops up blocking you. I'll try to keep an eye on logs to fix any problems I see. Let me know if you have any questions.

Update : We're still getting pounded. Be ready folks. With all the fake users coming in this has the potential to get ugly... very fast.

Well, you could add one of those fancy tests to see if users are human to register. Ban lists are just a big no, there are many reasons one could be in a ban-list without doing nothing wrong.
A) Your e-mail account was hacked
B) You use web-based e-mail
C) You where seeding or downloading a torrent, even if it was legal stuff
D) Some shitty website reported you had too many Internet connections
And there are rarer ones, like some sort of evil-ware infection your computer

A spam bot who learned how to love.
Those are the worst kind. They're always trying to find a way to sell that "love" to everyone else.
