I see the spammer is back. I deal with it by clicking on the spammers name, click ignore and then refresh the page. Looks like the mods get onto it quickly - well done.

Hi Mike,
There are lots of them.
Some of them get trapped by the system at the registering stage and so the ordinary users never see them.
The ones with pages of Chinese text that get through are deleted as soon as we notice them (not difficult!).

They are getting clever though Its hard for the system to pick up.. "Inq" does a piggin good job with the filters.

But Nigel, Jim and me are normally up with the crows.
 
I'm quite puzzled how the Chinese ones always seem to get through, and make five posts?. I've probably blocked 5 or 6 spammers so far today?.
 
Is there a way to block Chinese characters in titles? Unicode characters from U+4E00 through U+9FFF - it should be fairly straightforward to block or lock the users entering these obscure characters.
