Do we need more modderators because we seem to be getting some spam that just sits around a few days?

Do you also delete the user accounts that are used to post spam? If you take a look at the member list (reverse the sort order to see the newest accounts on top), there are lots of accounts with zero posts. If you delete a spam message, it might be a good idea to delete the spammer's user account as well (if it has only been used for spam), because that account probably will never be used again anyway.

edit:
Such a user account often has a link in its profile to some spammer's website. By not removing the account you help the spammer by increasing its Google page rank.

[maybe, topics of spam. removing a whole forum because of one spam post, would be interesting  ;) - @kukac@]

Well, all SPAM is comming to the General forum, but I don't think renaming it would help (I had the same problem on a own forum and even changing that forum's ID didn't help :S).

because of the spam posts (topics) usually goes to the first forum that allows to start a new topic. in our board, its the general discussion. i also remember, when we had spam in the development forum too.

i guess you misunderstood me

I didn't mean that we should just delete the forums and start a new one everytime someone posted spam!
i meant that maybe we need more moderators to get rid of spam topics because i hate opening a topic only to fing its a bunch of junk! [k - @kukac@]

I think there should be a topic that tells people we don't want those kind of posts.

yes, but forum administrator can delete accounts. thats martino, right? i put my fingers into creating phpbb forums, so i explored that functions. administrator is something like owner of forum.

@kukac@: I've deleted the post "Let's get acquainted My name is Tomas!" since it's certainly SPAM, I've just seen an identical post on another board where I'm moderator xDD.
