Reporting spambots.

[Smask]

Michael, do we have to report on every posted spam? Or can you just nuke everything posted by:

elizabeth4126
Edi8th99
Malka4re
quptj7196lasjdf
ikahlE43
phoronss (probably not a bot, but a spammer still)
bella10388

The methods I use to verify the spammers are:
Klicking on "Reply with Quote" to see if there are hidden URL:s.
Mark some text, press CTRL-F to load the search box in Firefox, jump to the first page in the thread, click "Find Next" to see if the spammer copied from someone.

Should be taken care of now, thanks.

Some new ones:

wiaf941aeljm (the makemoneymakemoney c&p spammer)
aion12 (new spammer, doesn't use evasive maneuvers)

[Smask]

There's a new generation of copy & paste spambots out there, the C&P bot with altering. I.e. removing or replacing words in order to evade detection.

wiaf941aelj - standard C&P bot.
DM613 - new gen C&P bot

naeT1eixol - standard C&P spambot
DM613 - Still alive.

Taken care of. Thanks, Smask.
