uhm.... I waste too much time on here. I wouldn't mind deleting porn, if someone wanted to make me a mod. I promise not to abuse any power, just offering to help.

in the meantime, username WALINCARL dragging up a lot of old threads, which isn't so bad, but the spam is still annoying.

i think if anyone frequents these boards frequently and is willing to give their time that maybe your fellow users can vouch for each other to suggest who they wouldn't mind being a spiffy brand spanking new moderator on here.

...or a simple captcha addition to registration would help tremendously.

It really would. And I think maybe only Peej has the power to ban accounts, possibly extend this to all mods?

yeah peej is the only one that can ban, I just send him the names of people who constantly spam on the same names

actually I think more than anything what would help is a e-mail required for registration where you have to activate it from the e-mail

also the spam always gets worse on the weekends because every now and then we actually are forced to leave the computer. it's rare but it does sometimes happen

I'm actually here more on the weekends, because that's when I park my ass in front of the computer to write all my papers.

I know only peej can ban people, I was just suggesting someone go to walincarl's profile, and delete all his posts from there.

Yeah i have more of a life on weekends. Plus I didn't come on this morning to do my routine spam-bust as I was sleeping off a birthday-induced hangover. It's just spam. It's alright. Who doesn't love imitation child-porn?

At a board I am a mod at, we manually validate the first few posts of each new member. Even moderating the first two posts would eliminate 99% of spammers. It so far has been the most successful thing we have tried in the 6 years I have been there.
