Adam, I have deleted the posts. I don't have access to delete members. This may take sometime but it will happen. :wink:

I guess we all know who's going to be banned soon.

Time for an extra question at the user registration form?

Trouble is these bots can sometimes bypass these security measures.
Unless it's a disgruntled ex-member doing this,seems these users are registering nearly everyday.
They must have gotten annoyed at having their posts deleted as they've spammed the whole board now.
Kanta,have you not got a banning option in your Mod control panel ?

Still, I think an extra field in the registration form is not a luxury. It helped to avoid a lot of (if not all) spammers in my forum. This doesn't look like an ex-member, but really like a botspammer.

Certainly looks like a bot spammer the rate it's adding posts.
I still think something like a newly registered users usergroup would be a good idea,keeps my forum spam free although a few have tried,and got their accounts deleted before their posts reach the board.
This Frilige one is getting out of hand now !
I see it's tried to post in the news section & looks like Nico's set up an approval system on that board.

Seriously, when will that account be deleted, this is getting annoying :cry:

It can only be done by an admin,so we will have to wait for GJ,Nico or Clubmix to log in & delete it's account.

They're working on it, I'm sure.
I reserve my hatred for these .... whatever sub species they are .... :evil:

this bot spamming is a fricking joke! :evil:

Please be patient. I have reported to admin. I do not have access to delete spammers. Sorry.

Can all the 300+ posts of that user be deleted too? I have no idea what to read anymore.
