It's too specific for generic spambots to figure and pretty elementary for anyone with a device on his hands.
So now owning a device will be the new requirement? :P I think not. Good try, though.

Community, why not have a delete thread button? So after X amount of deletes from the members the thread gets deleted, and at that time a moderator can see if it is credible thread or not. The thread wouldn't get deleted immediately but it wouldn't be able to be looked at,or responed to until a moderator gave it a thumbs up or down.
Just my two cents.

sounds good but there'd be an application to the UN from (dis)abill_uk because he'd never get anything up on the forum

What about 'How many Fremantle bugs have status WONTFIX?'. That's a device-specific question that I'm sure you could answer.

Well, seeing as how the spammers have taken over, I would like to say that I, for one, look forward to serving our enthusiastically loquacious new overlords.

That's like asking Mr. Owl how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll (tm) Tootsie Pop (tm). Man, I wish I was getting paid for product placement. You hear that, new overlords??
