So the Mods/Admins here either don't know how or don't have the proper forum control to do so to stop the spamming.
Pretty interesting that there is a way to combat the spamming! OMG! You really were able to get rid of the spam problem all together on another site! Plus you actually blocked entire countries! Very impressive! Hopefully our site could be spam free some day! Fingers crossed!
