I've noticed an odd increase in the number of spammers. From the top of my head, some of the spammers are mkking91, abcdefghijklmnopabc, (by name only) Ahnka17, and the most obvious, new, and evil of them all, Fungry101. I think that if this doesn't subside, the mods are going to have to do something. Auto-spam deleter or possibly, if it can't be controlled by the deleter, the mods may have to temporarily block new users from signing up.
To be honest, I think the mods here do a pretty good job. They tend to get rid of fools like Fungry rather quickly in most cases. Sometimes, a mod isn't here when a problem occurs though. It happens. However, they tend to get rid of the offenders rather quickly when they hear of the problem upon coming back. I know dealing with a spammer or some dork like Fungry can be a pain until they're expelled, but consider this. It could be worse. Have you ever been to the crapfest called IMDB?

I never said they were doing a bad job, but it sort of detracts from the time people have on these forums and it's annoying. Plus I'm sure the moderators don't want to spend their time going around and removing a whole bunch of posts.

Now that's not very nice. Anyways, it's made up mostly of bumps of other topics. I think I got about 400-450 posts like that by now.

Come to think of it...why are some people obsessed with post count? Some people try their best to make it to a certain number, and others bother people if they have a high post count in a short amount of time. It's just how the board works if I post bumps often. It's just that other threads have gotten active while certain things I was planning have fallen down. People who are interested might not see it.
