I just had an idea. Instead of banning the spammers when they get through the new shields, it would probably be possible to create "The SPAMDOME" and change their user permissions so it's the only part of the forum they could view or post in. They could all spam each other to death!!! ;D

Thoughts?

I dunno...would that do anything strange to the GSUS's page ranking and other web-type wachamacallits in search engines? We want people looking for PMs, guns, survivalism, etc., not Viagra or cheap Canadian drugs (although I guess they're not necessarily mutually exclusive).

Devilishly twisted and brilliant! But to add to the pain, let them see other parts of the forum but not post! Except in their special place.That would be pure Evil! ;D

What was that line in 300? Offer them nothing, and take from them everything?

Just returning the mindset. Give them nothing, which is more gracious than what they offer.

Sounds like a nice place to go and curse at people.

So long as their doo-doo gets cleaned out at the end of the week.

No reason to waste the bytes.

Being a tech guy, my only concern is that you're allocating system resources to spammers. But if you tell the Database to purge that and not catalog it, it should be fine. :)

I agree with Book; if they start posting links, wouldn't the webcrawlers/indexers find them?

Think they would, but if new members are screened before being allowed to post new threads and only reply to existing posts.
That would make webcrawlers/robots a non threat to the forum. The down side the links can still be followed by those that want to.

Ponce?? ;D
