https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=207985This bitslovers23 user keeps on posting links to a fake Washington post site that tries to instal crap on your comp. They've done it a few times now, but the threads and message contenting keep changing to "...". Don't know it a mod is zapping them or what.

Little proposition... perhaps could could get a general sense of where the traffic is coming from (through the proxies).. and perhaps ban said countries of origin from being able to register.

That seems a little extreme.

That seems a little extreme. I have a message board of my own that got hit by spam bots, and to solve it, we ended up having discovered the source countries from where the spam was coming from, so we banned those countries, and voila, no more spam. lol. Yeah, it was at the expense of potentially banning some potentially new legit users from those 'banned' countries... but the board was a lot better off without the spam. The people who registered from those "banned" countries had to be manually approved by a moderator or administrator, so we got all the 'legit' users. tl;dr: Ban countries that spam from registering, by sending them to a "moderating" queue, and manually approve users that mods think are legit. This quickly weeds/purges out the fake accounts.

For these kind of cases, would it be more efficient to use the "report to mod" function? Or maybe make a PM to you badbear directly? Or, would you prefer us to make a reply in this thread?

Yah. Likely they will be used for sigmature payments later after they reach a good level (of course if they aren't banned)

Either or, don't matter much.
