I would imagine it is very difficult to do without 'vetting' each and every potential registration personally. That what's the 'report post' triangle is for and it does get dealt with quickly.

Thumbs Up

Some of the spammers before they get binned can be quite entertaining....Spudfan was going to treat us all to 'a group buy' courtesy of his other half's 'borrowed' credit card on one of them! I ended up getting quite excited! Laughing If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Hi there!

As a moderator/Administrator of an LR enthusiast site here in Chile I can forgive Martin about that. We had the same trouble some months ago with almost 10 unwanted newcomers per day.

You cannot stay all the day/nigth trying to chase this guys and erase them when they were able to pass all the safety measures that you believe are enough.
They allways invent new bots to entering and write non-sense or non related advertise and the poor admin should be block them with new safety measures that took some time to implement.

So, give some time to Martin to erase it. Wink

Cheers Eduardo

Only thing he could do is set new members to approval when registering - it isn't a major delay as you don't get that many genuine new members per week.

As a mod on a couple of LR forums I know how time consuming deleting spam can be .... John
