A great solution to "SPAMMERS" is to have a SPAM thread; e.i., "SPAMMERS POST HERE." Why would this be a great idea? Because it prevents them from posting annoying messages all over the forum. The idea behind this is to contain it; not to have to make so many restrictions and burn up resources trying to manage the SPAM thing.

Furthermore, 99% of the links you see from SPAMMER's isn't actually SPAM. Their objective is to simply create a back link to this forum to help their page rankings. They could care less if you click onto their links. Matter of fact, they don't want you to find their links at all because they risk being banned.

I've seen forums use this approach and works great. If members don't want to read what's in the SPAM threads, don't visit. Interesting enough, Admins will tell you that most members pay a visit to this thread anyway. Go figure.

And we do find these very easily and they are banned. This site does not exist for the purpose of helping them with their search engine rankings.
