I've had enough of the many spambot postings regarding companies being run by criminals. The links are all from the same domain, so can't you at least add http://www.5sw.com/ to the word censor? Then we wouldn't have to keep on reporting these pointless posts!

Even if that were added to the word censor, the threads would still be posted.
(I seem to recall they used to use a different domain and it was added to the word censor and then they changed to another domain. So, I'm not sure adding it to the word censor would really help.)

Try creating members have to view a thread before they can post/view forums. I use that and it prevents spam bots on my site.
Plus if it helps try using vBadvanced that stopped bots the first time but after a few days they started posting and I setup the site for them to read the rules by setting the hack "requires users to view thread before posting" It says something like, "The administrator requires you to view a thread before you can post" Something like that but it stopped my site from being spammed. Also add in registration captcha it helps ALOT. You can do more than captcha for more secure forum from fake bots.

A professional coder that's a customer of vB might sign up and share his first plugin, and wishes to link back to pictures, or support forum, or a paid version .. and wouldn't be able to.
Limiting users from posting links prevents progress of the core functionality of this site. So I hope that your suggestion won't happen.

Just saw a post about preventing links. How about preventing links for 5 posts only? That will give new coders time to take a look around, have a chat, BEFORE they start posting up modifications, then it can filter out the good and bad coders XD
