It's pretty obvious what the spam threads are, so just don't open them.

We are at the point where there should be an age restriction of 18 or older to access the forum part of this site.
And how do we verify this? Won't the spammer's (spam bots) just learn to click on the "I'm over 18" button / birthdate buttons?

If something isn't done to stop the disgusting pictures and links, the FBI has every right to shut this site down indefinately.
Reference please? My guess is that most spammers operate overseas -- may we should ban all non-US addresses?

Larks made a good suggestion for how to stop spam.
Agreed.

Another suggestion: if we keep banning these spammers, will they not run out of email addresses to activate a new account?
Yes, because there's a very limited number of "email addresses" available.

I think at the very least we should appoint a few trusted members of the forum to delete any spam material. What is to lose by doing this?
Isn't that what we have now?
