If it were a matter of blocking *valid* IP's, I'm sure they could/would in a heart beat... however, considering the countless proxies out there that spammers know how to utilize with great proficiency (real spammers know what they're doing), there really isn't anything they can do can to prevent it, short of making this forum 'members only' where you'd have to log in to access it.....

Thanks for answering the question, Anya.

It still remains that the thread was merely a collective vent of frustration, not meant for romeo's amusement. No harm meant. It just sucks that there's nothing that can be done to these creeps.
