Registration should be closed for a while until this problem can be sorted out. Continuously banning these new spamming members won't solve the problem because new ones keep registering.

Does registration on this site send an email with a "enter code to confirm" or "click to verify" link?

I wonder how many man hours the trolling has taken for that (probably single) person...

I think the person, whoever it is, made a program just to spam. Why, I have no idea, but the post made are too similar and frequent for it to be a person posting.

I suggested this a few weeks ago, but is it not possible to block certain keywords and phrases? That would probably decrease the amount of spam by a lot.

Just a suggestion, "new accounts" when they make a post for the first 5 times a moderator has to accept it before it uploads on the forum?or they become invisible to the public mass until a mod has approved of it.
OR every time a new account post something they have to make the "are you a human test" first year
