I know this is old, but there still hasn't been much done about the spam. I've been observing the Spammers, and what they have in common:
- Username is Usually in 2's, Like Jane Smith, or JSmith, and almost always begins with a capital.
- 98% of Spammers have a website listed under their profile, I assume because that's their way of advertising. There have been a couple exceptions, like Blueler, the newest spammer at this moment.
- They never use profile pics, but then again, neither do I.
There are a TON of ways to stop this. With all the mods/admins, you'd think that this would have been solved by now. I apologize in advance for nagging, but not much irritates me more than a spammer.
Just look at Pokemon Prism's site: They have like 3 spammers who have posted more than 2000 topics in the last two months, and nothing is being done about it.
Please, do look into this. Some of the websites they're posting are malicious in some way.

What?
You can try to hide yourself in this world of pretend; when the paper's crumpled up, it can't be perfect again.

It was funny the first time. Besides, there are like 5 admins here, and none of them have been able to solve the problem. All I'm saying is: This problem shouldn't be this bad. We have spammers spamming every day, and by applying some of the 'fixes' that I mentioned earlier, you could probably solve this.

Why don't you became an admin?

^ Probably because you need an admin to make someone else an admin. He stated that there's only 1 mod that's active and mods iirc cannot change ranks. ^
However, to say someone isn't 'active' isn't accurate. I know for a fact that IIMarkcus was on when he banned 80C and that was in the last 3 - 4 months.

@First part: Yes. iimarckus would also have to want me to be an admin which I'm pretty sure he doesn't and I probably wouldn't do a good job anyways because I have too many real life issues I'm dealing with right now.
@Second part: Just because he was around once in a 3-4 month period doesn't make him "active".
