If they continue to apear then they must be keying in the messages manually which is both time consuming and costly for them. That being the case I will delete them manually each day as and when I come across them. I will continue with the IP address ban. I have setup a new message board on Proboards.com (thanks to Glitz for reminding me). A few of you have reported problems with server access to Proboards which is something I cannot control or do anything about. I really want to keep the message board here open as it is quick and easy to use. Hope this image based username and password system does not cause to much trouble to the visitors to Little Gems - apart from the spammers of course. Cheers
I have tried deleting and I have tried banning them but the sodding spammers appear to have a roaming IP setup. Hence as fast as I ban a specific set of IP addresses, they change them to something new.
However, I doubt if they have OCR technology based into their spamming software so the image I have placed on the message board which has a username and password component should stop them.
