  @cryptonaut Yeah, the amount of spam is getting a little bit ridiculous. And whats with so much of it coming from the indonesia forum?

  There already is email verification required on new accounts, as well as captchas for registering (I dont think additional captchas for posting will help much). hmmm, tricky problem. Might have to unleash the ban hammer :)

  I called for help forum

  probably because I asked for the presence of sub-forums Indonesia request-indonesian-sub-forums.

  I offered to be appointed as a moderator

  and I will eradicate all the spam posts

  hopefully my language understandable

  many good idea going on but, don't get me wrong, i don't want to have this community the same as bitcointalk.. you can't do that, do not post, no signatures and stuff.. this will just make it worse and many will leave (so far i'm only a lurker there because all of these restrictions are BS to me). What about having the possibility to flag/report the user? for eveybody or just all moderators? after x user report, he will be automatically blocked for posting for x days and get an account warning, after that, any other user report will become a ban, we need to be a lot more strict with these kind of fake accounts, but not by punishing the entire board.

  We need to have at least one moderator for each section in the forums. They should enforce the no spam rules strictly. If needed, have an odd number of moderators and have a vote to remove users or have the spammers get reduced LTBc, if any.

  @cryptonaut

  try using the "Filter Boards" feature. If you filter out some of the non-english boards (e.g indonesia) then its not so bad actually

  thanks man, exactly what i've been looking for!
