Thanks for all of the reports. Naughty Boris isn't allowed on here anymore. :D
A handful more in the last 24 hours. I've changed one of the security questions for new registrations, so hopefully that will put off any new accounts by the spammers for a while. :-\
Thanks to those reporting these spammers. The Mod team cannot be on tap 24/7 so all help is gratefully received

Today I've banned 3 x bots and we seem to be under attack.
It's impossible for the Mod team to read everything so should you see something you believe to be 'not right' then please use the 'Report to Moderator' function found under 'More' at the bottom of each post

If it's anything like the attack one of the forums I look after suffered a week or so ago - you'd be better just shutting registration down for a few days... I think someone got themselves a hard-drive full of email addresses & just went to town.
