Bob Marley didn't sing "I shot the spammer" either, but he probably would have of he had come here regularly...

Doesn't the V stand for valuable? Perhaps they can get a MUP award instead?

MUPpet award perhaps...

I had to recommend them to Griffin. Prior to that he had to blame it on the sheep.

Just got a link above 'X items need approval' to confirm that a spam message IS spam?
Why I got that? It's now for everyone?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I'm seeing it now too - the links aren't working properly yet ...

It means the spam filter is working at long last! Yay!

Look, this board is for software developers, who know that everything takes ten to fifteen times longer than originally planned.
It's obviously part of the preparations for next Xmas.

And I thought to myself,
"These are pseudo science: nobody with any form of rational thought believes in it."
"So...why not have a 'Developer Capcha' on QA posts?"
We could make everyone who wants to post a question solve a small (two lines, maybe) C# (or even - gawd forbid - VB) coding problem, or fix a syntax error before they can post!
That'd keep 'em out!
Then I realised why it wouldn't work: most of the QA question posters would fail...and quite a few of the answerers as well...
Ho, hum. Back to the drawing board...

When reading this I visualised mentally a poor guy that has to solve a problem similar to the question he wants to ask

Good idea though!

It will drop QA traffic near zero...There will be time to handle all the 'black magic'...

You think the spammers are brighter and more technically literate than most QA posters?
Could be, when I come to think about it...

Yeah, I am afraid they would be able to Google themselves to an answer. Besides, they deal in magic, so...
