We have someone removing them and a plan on how to have all post 'removed' in one simple move. There's also a service we can subscribe to that might help.
We can't write too much here as it will help these idiots to get around what we do.
You can make it easier for Moderators to delete rogue threads.
Using the fail safe system currently in use it take 3-4 minutes to locate and delete a rogue thread.
And when I am using the search engine to locate spam words deleted threads still appear.
Another possibility is for new members to deposit 10$ in some sort of escrow account which is forfeit when they are removed but returned after 3 months to genuine members.
Any surplus going to a recognised charity.
And please - when are you going to change that "Save" button to "Post Now"

Hi Daniel
Its not a virus just the same scumbag as last week.
I took an hour and a half to take them off last time but not again.
Admin - One solution may be to limit new members to 5 threads a day - that will stop these multiple entries.

Hi James
The spammer is back again - this time as coachshoes coach - he is putting them up quicker than I can take them out.
I am giving up the task as it is taking too long.
Please can we have a filter - block delete function so I can take them all out in one hit.
At the last count there are 86 spam posts all over the forum.
