Along with the amount of spam, what I'm amazed at is the amount of responses TROLLS get on this board.

I just recently implement a spam protection function. A guest is allow to have 2 reported posted before he is banned for 24hrs from post as guest. How does this work? If I coming from ip(192.168.0.2) post 3 messages as guests and 2 were reported as spam by any registered user then I won't be able to post as guest again until the next 24 hrs passed on the lasted post reported. And the thing is, someone actually have time to sit down and spam manually themself, it wasn't a bot. It's sad but true..

Can't you bring back the "no links allowed on guest posts" limitation?

I don't think this was ever implemented. I ask johnny what he though about it and he said alot of time people do a quick reply as a guest.
