Re: Sneaky Spammers
I find it unfortunate that a forum like CD is plagued by such a problem. I've found this forum a useful tool to solve problems and discuss ideas. Hopefully, together, we can limit or eliminate the spam.

Thank you for bringing the problem to our attention.

Doesn't look like it. That would be a great way to cut down the benefits of link spam. It appears that newer versions of vbulletin have options to do it automatically, and there are plug-ins to do it for older versions.

Re: Sneaky Spammers
vB can also disallow links in signatures IIRC.
