No kidding! It's gotten ridiculous.
Easy way to stop them. Don't allow posting privileges for the first 24 hours after registering a new user name.Quote:

I don't remember now, but do you have to fill out one of those "type what it says in the picture" things that are supposed to make sure you're a human to make an account? If not, if there's a way to add that in it might help.
Both a human verification and a new user 24-hour posting ban are needed.
Thanks for the suggestions. We are checking with our guy.Quote:

Not sure. But anything would be better than a new user registering on the site and posting junk multiple times within an hour. Legitimate new users shouldn't have a problem with waiting 24 hours before posting.Quote:
