I think we need to get rid of the spambots to get rid of the odor. I reccommend making any user with <10 posts unable to submit if their post contains a link. Any new user who is real can easily get 10 posts or just have the admin give them 10 posts or create a joinable group a bot wouldnt figure out how to join.
Also the smell might be coming from Chees. Ban him just to be sure.

A quick search found me no such plugins for phpbb. That would require making a modification in the code of the forums, specifically the posting part. I think the questions about Deus Ex that are asked on registration are probably skipped by spambots, a proper CAPTCHA/google's recaptcha would be the solution for that.

The solution I proposed was already done on DX Alpha to great success. I believe those are phpbb boards too.

That's actually a great idea! I've modified the forum code accordingly to avoid users posting links if they have too few posts yet. Let's see if that works.

I'd say we're finally making progress on spam bots

Yeah, next step is a Super-Rocket shooting auto-turret at the forum entrance!

I think my previous assessment might have been pre-mature
