I suspected so, how are you so sure?

Feel free to use the 'reporting' feature of the forum when you see more such posts, by the way.

Oh, I've done that, but as I didn't get response, and the reported user/post is still there, I didn't use that feature anymore.

Those bots are easy to detect, as they use all the same "engine". Register, set a simple signature, make a post with copied old content. Wait some time and then change the signature to commercial off-topic stuff.
I've 2-3 of those every week in my own forum. Didn't know, how we could avoid that they could register,

I just realizes that ConnieKeefe have change his signature as well already.

Ah, I usually do delete the reported users (and their posts).

Thanks, those seem to have been the last ones in the queue, guess I missed them. Removed those and the 'zohaa' mentioned in the thread you linked.

Adding a 'custom security question' worked surprisingly well in the past, I suppose they've cracked this one now though. I wonder if this'd be as simple as updating the question .

Make a new one, something like "type in last 8 symbols of md5sum of base64 of this text"

User douseeyou is spamming the forum.

You can 'report' his posts, too.

Looks like the user has been deleted already though.

Reminds me of certain video games of the 80s...
