Spammers

Hi! We have had a MAJOR problem with spammers over at Sanitarium and we were wondering is there any way to fix them? We have tried banning this one guys IP address, but it CONSTANTLY changes, meaning we keep having to delete his numerous accounts and banning his IP address's. Is there any way to stop them?

Any help appreciated!

Well, posting remarks like this -
"Spammers watch out, because we have your e-mail, and we just might be sending a few spam e-mails to your account.
Thanks all you spammers, for giving me this idea.
You WILL pay.
I mean this."
- will just make things worse if they are out to spam you.

If they are using a dynamic IP then you are jut going to have to put up with it, unless you block the whole of that range - if they are actually spamming you with specific links censor the links. If they have appeared to have breached their ISP TOU report them i.e. posting porn, threats, harrassment etc.
They may get bored and move on.
But not if you challenge them like you have above...:rolleyes:
