Spammers be gone

I suggest implementing a "mark as spam" button near each post on the forum. After a post has gathered x spam marks, someone on the team should get an email, suggesting the deletion of said post. The post itself might also be added to the email, in order to simplify the decision.

I wouldn't say https://trisquel.info/en/users/weufhuwh8 is an spammer, just a bit misguided :-)
The others are gone.

Yep, one of the changes is working at least a bit temporarily against the kind of spammers we were getting such a big amount of, but it's little more than a small patch until we get a real fix.

I have found that there was in fact a problem with the spammer detection tools, which meant that they were way behind new registrations with their "checks". I have made a couple of changes and the system has now caught up with the newer accounts, but it'll probably need more work because this issue should not happen anyway with the existing setup.

Really assorted catch :/

All of them but [11] (which I feel is a legit user) taken care of, thanks!

In any case, we're running again into a detection problem, I'll look into alternatives to our latest setup.

Yes, we do that when this kind of cookie-cutter accounts increase their frequency, and it seems it's time again.

Our means for auto-detection are still limited though to avoid distress to legitimate users and accessibility issues.

These looks like dropped by a bot. Maybe we could make the registration slightly different to confuse it/them. Even an extra tick box "I'm not a spam bot" might do it.

More than probably...

Thanks for keeping an eye on them!
