To begin with, would there be any way of making it impossible to register with a nick that consists of both
I suppose any challenge to actually use their brains (or even be creative) would be to spammers what garlic is to vampires.

It's mostly bots, guys. Bots are like zombies. Neg-repping them doesn't hurt them. "You gotta shoot them in the head."

On the contrary, skip, I find the latest generation of spambots, with their ability to select quotes from the thread and comment on them, rather disturbing. For now, they remain relatively easy to spot, but it is surely only a matter of time before they are able to mingle among us undetected ... In fact, for all we know, there may be regular posters here who are actually fiendishly clever spambots trying to reel us in to buy whatever it is they have to sell. Btw, did I ever tell you about Fantasy Flight Games ...

 ...and it's quite possible that we may welcome them one day as they will have evolved the ability to write cogent thoughtful on-topic posts (I hope to as well one day).

Just had a vision that goes more or less like this:
Spam-Bot: I like ur post. Thank for sharing. For me it makes perfect sens.
A perky Lush appears with a shotgun and shoots the head off Spam-Bot. Lush: Die evil spammer! Spam-Bot makes a few jerky movements, sparks fly in the air, then it collapses in a heap on the ground. Lush blows the smoke away from the barrel. Lush: That's how we stop them! Behind Lush the smashed head of the Spam-bot is liquefied and reassembled, T-2 style. Spam-bot rises, and dusts itself off. Spam-Bot: Thank for you your kind thuoghts. You have realy helpd me in my job! Bless you and have a nice day. Lush flees in terror

Lush wouldn't flee in terror, because she totally knows her movie plot lines. She'd lure that disgusting abomination down to a factory and straight into a vat of molten steel. And the unknown future shall commence rolling toward us.
