Time to catch up a bit.

>Oh please, the CP issue should've been stopped on day one. The fact that they've waited this long to finally do something is pathetic.
Somewhat true. The thing is, we've been trying slowly for over a year to at least stem the tide with different methods. Some work for a week, others for a day, but always, they come up short. Only recently have we stepped up enforcement to a rather extreme degree, and still... it's here. We're coming to a point where we might force spoilers on all images, or do something else drastic. Should it have taken this long? No, but we had every reason to be cautious about the approach. Look at the shitstorm that was generated by enforcing a DNSBL.

Auto-ban messages are for the word filter list yes. They are just 30 minute temp bans. We have had many "join my D - chord group" spams over the years.

This isn't damage control. I just wanted to tell people I'm fucking TRYING my best over here to stop this shit, but it comes in so many forms and my tools are so limited. We're doing more than we ever have, and it's still not enough, I'll grant you that. And a couple of suggestions here are not complete bullshit.

We don't give 10 years bans automatically for D -chord spam, the auto-ban is 30 minutes. However, a mod could apply a 10 year ban manually. I could see that happening for someone like big M A R -v, who just does not give up.

something similar is being examined. Pregchan uses a password system like this.

No solution, but lots of data, and at least a couple more things we can try.
