Third-world spammers continue to be a problem for us. The practice of not allowing new accounts to start threads has completely vexed them, but they continue to open and (usually) validate new accounts to TRY to post new threads. And they continue to do this at the same pace as they did when they were successful at it.
It's like somebody gave them a script to follow...
Every two-three months I clean out all the accounts that registered and never validated, and all the accounts that registered and haven't logged in months. Hundreds of accounts get deleted, half of them with gobbledygook names, the other half with names like xxviagraxx that give their game away.
