Now that we have such a robust system for filtering such egregious words as horseman, can it please have an auto-warn auto-ban for spam trolls?

I find it amusing that a thread about banning spammers appears at first glance to be spam itself. 🙂

Also, go get 'em, Nim!

Feels a little close to a callout thread, but disregarding that.

I agree a spam filter of some sort would be worth investing some time into. A couple rules for its activation:

- Activates upon _XX_ number of messages in a minute.
- Activates when you post the same message within _X_ minutes.
- Auto-ban function for _X_ day(s) for _XX_ repeat offenses within an _XX_ hour timeframe.

Replace _‘X’_ with a reasonable number.

I would agree if it was a player with time and history but this clown was level 4 and didn’t really have an identity beyound spamming.
