Re: spam bots
There are mods that delete spam threads and members like this every day. There are anti-bot countermeasures at registration - our old one was cracked a few weeks ago so I had to enable post approval for a little while until I had time to implement a better one.
Keep in mind that not all spammers are bots - human spammers exist, which are much more harder to stop. There are people who spam for a living because they earn revenue out of it somehow, or if they hate the forum in question.
Nevertheless, please don't say the forum is spam-filled just because one spammer got through. They have been deleted now.
