May be that's not a bad suggestion - get them to complete ten VW related questions,that's work and could well put them off since it's not porn related?

I don't think making any changes to sign up will stop it.

Don't think its a bot someone is manually filling out the form.

Are you still blocking IP addresses etc? Where is the spam coming from which country? Just block access for those countries

I've been trying to ban the users by ip, user name, the lot

Strong effort if they're actually repeatedly coming back and making so many posts!

Does the user see the post just no one else?

They may think they're successfully posting if so

[rich83]

The user and admin/mods will see the posts.

Do they originate from certain countries? Is so, you can get the host (United hosting) to block them from access to the domain fullstop
