    So I told you about this a long time ago, and this spammer is back with two different IP's.
    One is from the UK, one is in Chicago.
    Check out the site, I am not the site creater. I am just an admin :

    Ban the member's IP addresses. The only way to stop him/her is continue to ban him/her.

    If he uses a proxy, there is no way to ban his IP. The best thing you can do is activate blocking links for new members and hiring staff to delete his junk

    well i would not allow guest to post. You will always get spammers that way.
    You should have it so the can view the forums and read to[pics, but can not reply unless they are a member

    As far as the ip, If it's from the same person? sounds as if they are using a auto ip changer

    Same person, same topic (porn), different IP.
    And the IP's are from places like London and Chicago.

    So may be changing your forums permissions for guest not to post might be a step in the right direction Wink
