Your endless posting has made you a mod, TSM.
I was browsing and I saw TSM was a mod now. I'm like, wtf.
What annoys me is that this post has no point nor does it have any sense behind it.
Bah.

Unfortunately several of the other mods don't come 'round these 'parts much these days. Therefore, new mod candidates were selected. Welcome to 'yall! (Where did this southern accent come from?!)

Perhaps this is wise choice but if one day you succeed in stopping mass spamming, you mught like to consider reverting back.
Actually, our most frequent type of spam is the smiley only posts. Those usually only occur in the guest accessable forums, but are extremely prevelant. (And very annoying) We have a good share of porno posts too, but those usually get deleted before most members can see them.JKSM wrote: One thing I never figure out is why spam on different forums have different style. The main spam on this forum is the long advertisement with nonsense links. One another place seen before it's vulgar words & porn. Then some place is numberous repeated alphabets or words. Then there was one forum that allowed guest posting but had no spam. Then again there were hardly much posting in that forum too. This lead me to think maybe certain kind of spammers like to visit certain forums. Then again, there is no evidence to indicate spamming behaviour unless one conducts a survey like "Why do you like to spam". Of course no one would ever do that as it is not a wise idea.

I can understand spamming because it can make you money (ads), and spamming because you're mad/you're trying to be funny. But I've never understood the one smiley/one character spam posts. Why would anyone want to do that?
or something else. During that time, I didn't post much but I still read posts. Yeah, if they intended to spam, they should have more simlies. I don't understand it either but my guess is maybe it's a lazy spammer (someone who wants to spam but is too lazy to type or click). Nowadays the prevalent spam seemed to have taken a different direction. Maybe there is a trend.

Unfortunately it seems the only way around it is to turn guest posting off, there don't seem to be any phpBB hacks that can solve the problem.
