Spam in the general discussion forum

I spent an hour yesterday removing spam messages, banning accounts, IP addresses, etc..  Overnight the same problem has happened again.  Sadly, boards.net doesn't seem up to the task of preventing spam, nor do "global moderators" get the tools to do so efficiently.  I'm not sure if there's a more powerful level of admin.  If there is, they'll need to address the problem, presumably by setting up posting restrictions.  If not, I'm leaving boards.net.

Last time I suggested moving elsewhere, most people wanted to remain here.  If that's still the case, no worries.  If you would like to move this forum elsewhere, I'm happy to be an admin elsewhere.  Feel free to email me.  (Several people here have my email address.)

Thanks,

Andrew
