SPAM

The spam has become overwhelming. It's a waste of time, demoralizing, an unsightly mess on the Recent Changes page, and while we're lucky right now to have dedicated spam-whackers, this isn't always going to be the case.

What are our alternatives to simply knocking it out as it appears? Can this issue be bumped up to some tech people who can help? There's GOT to be some solution out there!

I'd be up for doing some spam-fighting, if you can give privileges to my account.

you now have gardener permissions and should be able to block spammers and delete pages.
