Default Suggestion to end SPAM!!!

Look, this is horrible...
It's really out of control.. I gag just to think of it...
I just had this idea that might work..
simply, ban all the already registered spammers and close registrations..
Members only...
It's crazy.. =/

Closing registration isn't a good idea as new customers wouldn't be able to join and get the benefits.

The only option really, is to have a better captcha upon sign up, to prevent the bots from registering in the first place. Upgrading to a new forum with better controls for this is probably the best idea as nothing has worked so far.
