Has anyone considered disabling account creation until the spam rampage is under control?
I am running out of flags, even when I flag only the first post in these elaborate spam topics.

I’d try that.
I can look into the moderator queue for half an hour, every other day or so.

I am still removing a handfull of spam every other day now. That is not too bad.
Moderator queue is filling up, I have not yet found an efficient way of dealing with that.
Each delete is ca 10 mouse clicks for me with slow response and internal 500 errors that need retries. After that, I have to navigate back to the queue for the next item.
