I have a question.
Is it okay if we automate some moderation via a script? Like a program that sends a request with board volunteer credentials to login onto the site, and then parses threads looking for potential spam, subsequently sending requests to delete those posts it flagged as spam. Perhaps, sending 3-4 automated requests every 5 or 10 seconds or so. Would it be too much for the servers/engine to handle?
Because with the captchas still not working, I'm afraid the spammer problem is going to get much worse.
