At your service, dood!
Every day I come here I see more spam, and it sometimes takes days to get deleted.
The site was recently reinstalled, I saw the Apache page the other day so perhaps something can be done about this now.
Someone had access to make the changes I am about to suggest so its time to dig up this again!
Suggestions for solving this problem:
1) Hire more moderators
2) Make new members posts be moderated, i.e. until they have a certain number of posts, all posts they make must be approved by a moderator before they appear on the board, other forums can do it.
3) Set new accounts to have to be approved by moderators after registration, I know this board can do that, as a lot of the users have random usernames it should be easy to spot them.
4) Update this boards software if you haven't already
I will of course continue to report the spam posts when I see them but I wish I didn't have to.
Also while i'm at it put this in 1964's heading if the board supports it

For 1964 only. Even though it's :) <?php echo date('Y'); ?> :)
