Isn't it about time the authorities and organisations responsible for policing the internet in this country did more to prevent the distribution of spam emails and posts? I mean - if I went out on the street and offered to sell prescription drugs I'd be arrested very swiftly. Why is it that the online sale of prescription drugs is allowed?

If I offered for sale fake diplomas from universities I'd be guilty of fraud. Why isn't more done to eliminate these pests? It must be in every countries' interest to erradicate these slugs and clean up the internet.

Is it possible to make people who sign up to the forum fill in one of those awful image captchas? Annoying, but it might help stop the spam.
