Me too. In fact I've only been able to ban one spammer so far, the rest of the spammers I've noticed have been registered for more than 7 days.

Maybe it would be better if we could ban anyone with less than 10 posts? Just an idea.

10 posts can be created in minutes with spam.

Just keep reporting them, we have ways to clean those that delay in their spam tactics.

I realise this, but somehow I very rarely see spammers with more than 10 posts. Especially since the spam police have been recruited.

Where does one apply to be a Spam Police?
------------------------------------------

You guys... all these new users with 3 or 4 posts, whose posts look like this:

"nice game... i like it... great graphics"

There's something fishy about 'em.

Yeah I know... I've been banning them, but some of them have been registered for more than 7 days...

I know someone else has caught on to em too because I was going to ban one, and they were already banned...

Remember to check people's signatures. I banned this one guy who made a thread which looked completely legitimate, but then I looked at his sig and saw that he was advertising porn. And strangely it wasn't internet porn, he was trying to sell porn on those ancient VHS tapes from the 80s! WTF?

What the heck!?!?

That's hilarious (well sort of).

Wait just a minute.... It was Echoseven wasn't it? I knew he didn't really want you to follow his Twitter page...
