Yeah I was wondering about those posts also. I have deleted a few topics and banned some spammers (who were much more blatant than these) over the last few weeks. If I'm remembering correctly they were all posts in Web Site stuff section. Maybe its time for reCAPTCHA for registration?  Though the current one is already painfully hard.

Edit: Just went to check out the CAPTCHA again, it currently is reCAPTCHA

Yeah, it's using reCaptcha atm.  And there wasn't anything overtly spammy about those posts or users, so I dunno what's up.  My guess is a delayed thing, where after a few months they then go in an change the signature or text or something like that.

Also, when you ban/delete spam, send me a message about the user so I can keep tabs on spam traffic.  When it spikes it tells me I need to rethink spam controls.

I hate to admit, but I was wrong. The dubious site was not for achieving penis enlargement it was for combatting erectile disfunctions.
