Forum Spam

The number of spammers on our forum should be fixed by now. I've implemented a few modifications and such that will hopefully tame the level. These modifications will not affect you- the majority of these are actually hidden and simply monitor where you post from (ensuring you actually entered in a post and didn't come from a bot script).
Time to see if this works.

Uhhh, it's not one person, it appears to be your run-of-the-mill spambots set up to advertise online gambling/porn sites.
The only difference I've noticed in the simple is kinda humerous- if you spend way too much time filling out a form, you have to go back and copy+reload+paste. It only happens if you've been sitting around for like 10 minutes or so, but it's done so you can't inject into the forum remotely.

I'll inject SOMETHING into the forums, if you know what I mean.

Did you guys recreate these forums? That is, did there use to be a previous gametrash message board before this one?
