[QUOTE="p1ngpong, post: 10407417, member: 123159"] To respond more seriously than I did before, I have been a member here for 16 years and spam has always been a problem. The measures we have now to combat it is lightyears ahead of what we had when I first joined but the problem is pretty much the same. As people have said previously the issue is we are not dealing with bots we are dealing with people. People in third world countries being paid pennies to spam sites like this, twitter, facebook etc as a living. It is a whole dark industry where people even go into offices every day to do this sort of thing. Nothing you implement will eliminate the spam because you are dealing with humans. Falling short of charging people money or severely crippling a new users experience of the site. First impressions are important, a bad initial user experience will lead to someone never coming back. There are not many sites like the Temp left catering to our niche, the majority have perished. We need to make sure that we do not cause the sites decline by being too obsessed with eliminating the spam issue. Honestly though I think this is being blown out of proportion to an extent. I remember spam being a lot more horrid in terms of what it actually was back in the day. Now it is mainly just scams and advertising.Which although not nice to see is easy to ignore, just hit the report button and move on. [/QUOTE]
