Yeah I know. And the frustrating thing is that my mod privileges do not allow me to spamban these bots. I can go and delete all the posts but that would take forever. Better way would be there to be some sort of captcha code for registration and for mods to be able to delete spam and ban the spammer on the same command (like I have on other forums).

I had 5 mails in my in box from the cyber hackers. I wish we could attach a virus to them when they inbound and just melt their hard drive.

The posts have been deleted and the spammer's IP has been banned.

The important thing is that when this happens, DO NOT reply to the thread. Just report that post to the moderators by clicking the little exclamation point warning sign under the users name on the left of their post. This sends a message to the moderators with a link directly to the specific post so that we can remove them quickly and ban the IP.
Currently some of the moderators don't have access to the "one-touch" method to clean up a spammer, and we're looking into correcting that so that all moderators can do this easily.
