Well that wasn't hard. Well known blocking capability to put a stop to 80% of it in 1 hit.

Applied a single line of PHP code and added a folder to some of my own stuff.

And if you wonder why your posts are auto moderated. This is why

The last couple reported are post boosting to meet the minimum requirement to post URLs. A crap way of doing so when links work fine if you leave off http or www. Real bad etiquette. But they post crud none the less and think it's OK despite digging up old threads with silly comments related to the topic just to increase

3 others have been moderated for using @ codes to promote YouTube channels

And another reminder if you see suspicious activity. Report it (Thanks Anmer!)

Good to hear the Reports are read and actioned where appropriate.

One you just reported was copy pasting random posts in different (new) threads

And besides it was on the first page of off-topic.

Thank You for that complement.

[Oblivian]

Your own digging up of old threads and making random replies kind of isn't either...

[AmericanAirlines491]

Spammers make no sense.

If ever you wanted a better example..

I just removed this fine piece of humanity.

These are obviously the phrases they have used to cut and paste elsewhere on forums, But has stuffed up and done the whole string here.

You good feeder chaps in India are being let down by fellow countrymen bigtime.
