I haven't been following the KeyShot forum for long but there sure seems to be an abundance of spammers. Aren't there any forum monitors keeping an eye on things and deleting these idiots and there garbage? I reported one this morning and it is gone, but there are still others from before and I see someone has just popped up. There should be forum monitors 24/7 that take care of these things pdq.

We are getting to them as quickly as we can, but they have a tendency to be tenacious and the Simple Machines blocking mechanisms are quite as robust as we'd like.

Good to know you are on it. Thanks Derek.

Yeah I noticed some days are far worse than others.. forums for some reason always attract spammers.
Would it help to get Cloudflare DDoS (or some other external) protection?
