We actually have a Captcha and a few other human loops we set up on this site.  We also send every post into an anti-spam filter which traditionally catches more people’s topic than spam, looking through our filter we have usually caught this type of spam in the past with one of the networks we use so this is new.

In the last year we had additional anti-spam tools but the community complained about it. It was stopping people from registering or being easy to use to get out the information. This is always going to be a balancing act.

If this continues we will be looking at additional ways to reduce spammers attempting to use the site I got some ideas.
