Ok, this spammer is a real $&%$#^ing $&^&#*#!! Is there no way you can just ban spammers? If not, then the website should have an option for the spammer handlers to ban them.

If there was a way for a forum to know if it's a spammer signing up, forum spam wouldn't exist.

I don't mean that the website itself should be able to detect a spammer, I mean that Derek and Chase should have a "ban-hammer" of sorts. I know these things exist on many other forums and websites etc. etc. etc. It would just be nice if they could simply ban people for "spammer type" posts.

I've probably banned close to 100 "people" and deleted their accounts in the last 7 days. Matt has banned quite a few as well. I'm sure Derek has owned plenty of fools too.
We do our best. I still refuse to "approve" people before they can post on our boards. If the spam keeps up I may change my mind.

I know he was very pro-active Thursday evening. :)
-
I've banned over 900 spam accounts since Friday. Some were old.
It hasn't done any good though. They are creating something like 20-30 accounts per day. Some post spam and some do nothing.
-
I think you should hire young nerdlings to ban the undesirables :)
-
Young nerdlings would likely abuse the "power" / cause drama / accidentally ban everyone who has registered with a gmail account. ;)

foiled again!

if there's anything game store nerds on power trips are good at, its causing drama.

Sweet.

Then let's get some cameras on that, market it to TLC as a reality TV show.
"Life is a Battleground: When Fantasy Gets Real: Fun is Serious Business"
The struggles of a local game store and the harder struggles of actually having to deal with the nerds, geeks and dorks who never seem to leave.
Season 1, 12 hours / day of spambot banning, more conversations about Jace, the rise of Warmachine and Goss has octuplets.

Ben, you're rapidly becoming my favorite person.

I highly approve of this. Mega Battle fottage alone will draw a crowd.

Season 2: Plainville Junior vs Abington Senior
"You're far away!"
"No, you're far away!"
"You like the same things we do!"
"No, *you* like the same things we do!"
Compelling stuff.

SOUNDS LIKE A SEASON CHASE WILL ENJOY IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN

I will start the fund for this program at a million dollars up front, and if I can guest star, I will give the creators five million every year.

We can have Coldplay write the soundtrack.

chase likes coldplay to?
-
...do they count as spam if their in Russian?
-
*I still vote for a "report spam" button, so if a certain number of people (say like 5?) report it, the post will automatically be deleted....but that would also ban a some non spam posts that people just dont agree with
