We should create a spam bot that when it spots a spam it destroys it.

Most spammers are humans
and one spammer can create several accounts, so far there are several people saying "gpad" as a link at the end of the post, the post seems constructive, but it's a preset. Things like that are hard to recognize, especially by a bot. I hope our moderator are smart enough to see what is spam and what is not...

No, replying to spam posts makes it harder to spot, as usually you can tell by their usernames. As well as their posts are quite obvious. What you can do is report the post, the little exclamation point at the right of the post.

We can't, we only see local ip, so if we ban one persons, we ban everyone. Not even makslane can see ips.
