Then what will all those people offering free shipping for their iPod do in the FS/T forum?Originally posted by: Dopefiend
Maybe ban all threads with the word "free" and "ipod" from ever being created?

I'd say at least 100 posts.

Easy. Add "freeipod" to the list of banned words, then "Free shipping on my iPod" won't get caught, but "www.freeipods.com/referrer.php?myownstupidreferrallink" will get blocked.

I've seen some newbies do that in 2-3 days. Plus you would then have a lot of people neffing just to get the required 100 posts so they could post their scam thread.

Lots of free iPod threads being started by new members. Don't you think that it's an existing member who's creating new accounts to spam the forum? Why would other people think of spamming AT Forums in the first place?
