Look at the no. of spams !
At least we can hav a thread going to the trash if anybody report it, and when some moderator examines it he/she can either restore it or delete it.
Nevermind am dreaming again.
Some viable solutions suggested by members to reduce spam:
Critical:
1. Captcha verification for creating a new thread (doesn't work if some bot replies to already created thread)
2. First five posts by any new member should be checked by captcha verification (Will prevent the spam but spam IDs will be registered unless the point 3 is taken into account)
2. First post of a newly registered user must be approved by mods (this works, mods hav to work a bit too )
3. Captcha for registrations (am not aware if digit registration uses captcha, but it will curb the spammers in the bud)
4. Confining a newly registered member to a particular section until his post count increases to say 10 posts or no of days increases to 2 days (will be good in long run)
Improvements:
1. Provide shades of black to the threads depending upon the age of the thread (Black for this year, light black for previous year, more light for others)
2. Lock down the threads older than 2-3 years (if urgent one can PM mod to reopen it)
We hav solutions lest the authorities consider them.
