I think NTR & Oliver need help - I was the only active mod on a car forum for a few months & it drove me nuts! Sharing the load so it isn't like a damn job would have to be better, well in my opinion anyway.

Agreed. I'm a moderator (currently administrator) on http://www.fordlaser.com ... while we don't have a big spam problem, we do have a lot of active members (over 6000 registered, i'd guess thousands active), and a lot of maintaining to do. it would suck to be the only moderator on there!
I'd love to see some of the "graphics-based key in a character sequence" authentication stuff applied here.
not sure what you mean there, but registration already requires recognition of some letters and numbers in a graphic, designed that a bot will have trouble reading them.. i get the impression that a lot of the spam bots are signed up by a person before they're unleashed.

He was replying to a spambot post which I have since deleted

Such as thing already operates when registering. Unfortunately, there are ways around it (such as a human registering, for instance). Activating this feature slowed the spam registrations, but unfortunately has not stopped them.
