Do we have one? I know we've not really needed one in the past.
But it might not be a bad idea in case we get an influx of these: ~~Link~~ Cat fixed it yay!

I'm looking into a report system right now. I've also deleted the spam posts.

Awesome sauce. I wish we didn't have to worry about stuff like but you can't control what people (or their bots) are going to do. Confused

We have a captcha for when people sign up right? Perhaps that could be updated as well?

Ah, that's a good idea! I wonder if it can be done?

Yes, in fact we have two captcha's, one is "what words are in this picture"
and then an abstract one that simply asks what the picture is of, which lessens the chance of a bot being able to read it.

As for spam reporting, can't do anything myself now but I'll message cat about it.

I noticed that a lot of the recent spam was from accounts registered prior to when we implemented the photo captcha, which was about two weeks ago, so that's a good sign that its working so far.

We're still definitely going to get a report system put in though. Smile
