Seriously, what is up with all these spambots lately? Can't the MC staff tighten security? Approve accounts before activation? CAPTCHA codes? Security questions? Anything?

All of the spambots reported in the previous posts have been deleted from the forums.


Please keep this thread for the reporting of spam, perhaps it would be best if a separate thread discussing MC's security/current gluttish flood of spammers were started in the Feedback section. It's not a question of using Captia codes or security questions, it would be a far greater improvement if:
1 the forums recognized certain spambot accounts like those with names ending in "axcena", "alex", "juriya", "Khan", "jibond", and automatically banned them instead of allowing continuous multiple account creations by these jerks; and
2 restored the availability of an option for staff members to ban any member (especially these spambot jerks) at any time instead of limiting it to just a "Spam" link at the bottom of their posts only when said spammers post any posts during their first month of membership.
