Now we've had first post approvals for new users for about a week and I
think it works very well!
The genuine new users get their posts approved fairly quickly.
As far as I can tell spammers generally don't try to post another one
when their first post gets rejected. So just leaving them as inactive
users seems safe. Only a few times I've seen the mass spamming where
I've had to delete the user. So less work for moderators.
Can we prune all Inactive users once in a while? We have about 4000 of
them...
Perhaps keep the ones newer than a week to not accidently delete genuine
users that just haven't had time to post yet.
Shall we stick to this approval system? It seems to be effective on spam
and not a too huge hassle for proper new users.

Looks like "Newly registered users" was turned off. (General>Board
Config>User reg settings) I turned that on.
That hopefully stops them from posting. Downside is that we manually
need to approve new users. Let's try it for a while?

Hi there,
looks like lately it is just me who is deleting spammers accounts in
the last few days...

Dear Administrators/moderators your help on this matter is highly
appreciated!
Thanks!
