Every day, more spam on the site.
Isn't there any way to make it more difficult to post on our site?

I reviewed the spam settings on the board and made the following changes:
I think that this should help decrease the amount of spam messages that we see on the boards. I'll need a few days to see if it is working.
- Increased the amount of time for a user to complete the registration before they are flagged as spam. This should help control spammers that are just copying and pasting their email addresses and other info.
- Enabled Akismet spam check for any messages posted by newly registered users. This should block messages from new users that contain typical spam text.
I hate the sight of spam in the morning!
... make that 4. 4 that made posts but didn't get posted to the public. just noticed them now.
Making improvements at least.
When they do get through, can you look for keywords that would likely never normally be mentioned on this board and add them to the "spam phrases" section on the backend? It's under Options --> Spam Management. Just put a new word on every line.
