Stopping Spammers?

[Lynne]

Put links where in their profile? If they can't edit it, can't use a signature, no custom title, etc, then where are they adding stuff?

Each forum will find it's own way to deal with spam successfully. On my site, we hardly ever get any spam. We mods fight over who gets to use the One Touch Spam Ban modification button. (I don't know why - we just all like to do it.) There are a ton of mods here to deal with spam. Go search them out and try some.
