You know what I did, minusonebit? I decided to try a public experiment. I installed a forum script on a brand new domain and disabled all email confirmations, approval and shit and posted just one big sign on it saying that this is a completely unmoderated forum and anyone can post in it, including spammers.
Inside I made one sticky thread which I named "Read This First" and wrote, what did you think you would find here. This is the unmoderated forum where anyone can post anything. If this turns into spam heaven - who the fuck cares...
After that I just left the site be. I haven't touched it for a few months, now I come back to it and guess what:
Our users have posted a total of 2370 articles
We have 2681 registered users
and all of it is the biggest spam shit you could imagine. i want to let the site fly. You never know what could happen with it next. Maybe someone real will start posting and maybe it'll turn into an active forum. However, at present time the spam heaven is going berserk and all links lead to the wors neighborhoods on the web. I'd love to have the bots not follow those links so they don't nuke my site for linking to bad neighborhoods. That's why i was hoping for a mod to add rel="nofollow" to all external links posted in forums there
