It's only gonna get worse unless more people can be allowed to monitor the forum. Ivan's only gonna get swamped IMO.

Would it help to have more of an entry barrier for newbies to get through, à la trolls posing riddles? Seems like all this spamming takes place within hours (even minutes) of a new account's being created.

I deleted manually like 20 and the autmoated deleted another 200 spams, but don't worry the spam filter gets smarter the more spams are filtered out. I don't want to set it too aggressive as it would generate false positives.

Geez plugz... I'd draw you a picture but you'd probably just turn the insult back around on me. Telling me how my lines are crooked or something. ;)

All this violent sarcasm is going to turn me to drink and drugs if you're not careful.

Post the results here in 24 hours give or take, depending on how good your drugs are.

Then we'll prove once and for all if drugs are indeed bad.

I'd have to be coherent to report results wouldn't I?
then again, which drug should i start with, and then it begs to be asked, do i take the drug before or after posting to the crit section?

LOL

It's more expensive but far more fun. Allegedly.
