You've all noticed an increase in spam, so have we. We're trying our best to deal with it and usually get it removed and eradicated before any harm is caused. We'd like to thank you all for helping and if you do see any spam or any posts that may be classed as spam, just look at the side of each post and there's a button with an exclaimation mark [!] on it. Simply click that and report the post to the moderators.

We'd also like you not to reply. If you reply, it makes others believe that this post isn't spam and therefore maybe wander across the post. If you find spam, just simply report it, no need to reply to it!

Thank you!

It got so bad at my board that I had to resort to opening the Admin panel and banning entire ISP address sets from Chinese servers because a few jerks kept spamming their crappy links several times every other day.

Moovok,
Just do whatever you have to, dude. We've all been there.

We can't ban the IP addresses here because this particular bot uses a roaming IP, making it next to impossible to track. That was one of the first things I tried.
