forum spam problem
at the moment there seems to be a huge amount of spam in this forum,
isn't there a way to solve this problem,
maybe filtering common used words like "dollars", "bills" or "sale" is a way to reduce the amount of spam.

The offending account has been deleted.
again, this time 25 topics from one spammer.
I agree, I reported the korean model spammer shortly after he posted, but there should be a basic filter, not that I would know how to make one for the forum system the site is using.
So, a couple of things, just so people know what's going on:
I think the best thing to do will be to limit accounts that are less than a day old to, say, two or three posts an hour, although even that is a pretty major annoyance for legitimate users.
Regular users can help with this. If enough people flag a post as spam in a certain amount of time, the post will be unpublished automatically. I don't want to be too specific about how this works, because I don't trolls gaming the system, but definitely flag spam when you see it.
Yes, sorry, we dont think its too big of a problem but I do think it should be limited to about two forums an hour maximum. That would probably be a good account measure to accounts. I think an account should only have to be a day or even just a few hours old, a lot of new people like to ask questions or post appreciations.
Lot of spam posts here :

I don't know if reports reach anywhere I can see. But I deleted them now.
How do we report messed up submissions?
