    you could probably just to put in a "verify email" clause in the steps of creating a new account.
    no way these bots are coded deep enough to go around that.

    Thanks for the suggestion, there is a verify code, and these aren't bots, but real people paid to spam forums.

    Does the website that it links you to have a forum? Maybe we get even and spam them with WSL broadcasts, links to this and other threads, maybe some other misc. items?

    It's against the law to do anything that will make job creators' profits drop.

    Dear web admins,

    The mobile advertising placement is intolerable. Mid-page clickbait? I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally clicked one of these stupid ads. Sure, that's why you have them that way, but it looks like sh*t and it's a disservice to the legacy of this great website (The Shredmachine is rolling in his grave right now).

    I'm in, but let's also figure out a way to get paid for it too.... Just saying..

    Maybe SI's new money could commission a few members here to bring the front lines back to the perpetrators' doorstep..

    all they will do is shut the forum down anyways. no benefit for them...these adds are overkill and the spam is relentless.
