I got up late, saw the messages on the spam threads, but only got to zap a tiny few before the rest of them got bit-bucketed. If you have sore mouse fingers, I'll bet a bunch of that - maybe all - was you. Thanks, @robertw486!

I was running forums in 2004 that had the ability to put a limit on the number of new thread a user could create in a certain time period. I cannot understand why Vanilla doesn't have/utilise this feature.

There’s now a captcha check which should stop the bots, if not the human spammers.

This user has made only 2 posts, but they feature links to an offsite fitness calculator similar to mfp which is against Guidelines. I'm not gonna try to keep up with reporting them one by one.
