Re: Dealing with spam users

> I've noticed an increasing number of spam users over the past few weeks

Good catch, the newest user is linking to an escort service. ( PLEASE DON'T LINK TO HIM!)

Seems like spammers found a loop hole.

Not sure how difficult that is.

But we do have a filter in place blocking posts with links to known spammers. Albeit not in the bio section...

I think the cheapest way to deal with it is to manually erase these accounts till the spammers are frustrated.

The only mechanism I know for that is messaging the gods. (DONE)
