    Have you considered screening new members for known spambots?

    At forums that I moderate I use Stop Forum Spam and SpamBot Search Tool v0.49

    If you had screened this spammer it would have been caught before it bothered anyone. See - Stop Forum Spam-Serendipity2

    Ok it's good this has been dealt with.

    Sending me spam is a bad move for spammers because I'll just expose them...
