Spam in the Forums

[ValeroStudio]

I've noticed lately there have been some posts on the forums by spammers and bots. Most recently in the Rhino general foum "Auto Mystery" posting. Also, I have been emailed by spammers saying "I saw your profile on the ASGVis Forums". What can we do to lock these fools out?

i've thought about that too, there should be like a link so we can send the notification to the guys from asgvis

Wait... So you don't see the "report to moderator" link in every post?
Is it not appearing for everyone?

Also, we just updated the forum software in an effort to curb the spam. In so doing the captcha was disabled for a little bit and a ton of bots got in. Once we get rid of all those bots the spam should die down. I doubt it will ever be completely gone but we do try hard to delete it all right away.
