Yo, I've noticed a lot of spam accounts over the last few months. If you look in the General Server Discussion section right now, there are 7 spam threads by the same account.

This has gotta stop.

Do something about it, please. I'm tired of reporting them.

Maybe make it so new accounts can't post until they've been registered for, say, 30 minutes and/or have linked their account to their Minecraft account? None of these spam accounts are linked to Minecraft accounts, so that'd be an easy way to keep out the spammers.
 
Any method which would help avoid spam bots would be amazing, and possibly making it a requirement to link your Minecraft account to use the forums would contribute.
When I was staff, personally they were honestly a massive pain to deal with. Although it didn’t take up a huge period of time, it still needs to all be taken care of, when it can be avoided completely. Frankly, this would help with staff and the community. It also would make the website a lot more cleaner/appealing.
You’ve got my full support on this! +1
