It's terrible to start a day like this 
Sorry for the bump.
0) Limit the posts of new spammers[^]
1) Limit the posts based on time intervals. This one[^] did post 30 spam messages with 1 min interval. (EDIT : 2 more messages after some time)
2) More Protectors[^]
3) Don't show "Message Automatically Removed" threads. Since yesterday, I saw couple of forums with half pages of those threads. Uncategorised posts[^] forum's first page has only those threads.
4) Any possibilities on Ban IP[^]?
5) After banning the spammers, remove their messages automatically if possible.

The tool tip for the rating for Q/A questions seems to be including some markup:
Rating = 1.75 (<span itemprop="ratingCount" class="count">3</span> votes)
Chrome Version 32.0.1700.107 m
[Edit]
More info: it is only AFTER I vote on the rating for the question, and haven't yet left the page.
If I leave and come back, I must re-vote to see it.

The protectors cannot remove spam messages I'm afraid. I wish we could, but we can't.

Yes, you right. Atleast they could delete Q/A section spams. In past I had that power(not protector, only the delete question power) & deleted more than bunch of reposts(after merged content of two questions).

There needs to be extra verifications and validations to avoid spammers

Done. Our world was in peril. We will no longer stand the terrible destruction plaguing our site. We gave five magic rings to five special people.

The protectors need the ability to remove nuked threads though. The .NET Framework forum, for instance, is a complete mess.

I just noticed the bomb icon when you mouse over a message. But it's not working for me(power issue). I think it should work for protectors. Give a try

It doesn't. It never has for protectors. And yes, I recently retried it.

I thought bomb icon would hide "Message automatically removed" threads.

Unfortunately, it doesn't.

Uhh... Looks like you ARE a protector now

Consider him[^] too. Take a look at his organiser points & group.
Or he'll get mad

I am not mad that they didn't include me. Perhaps the hamsters think I am more focused without the Protector powers.

I know it is very bad to ask, but if the forge is still active, I'd be more than happy to wear a ring as well ( but then you'd also need a seventh ring to rule them all ).

I will also gladly wear a ring to help fight spam.

You should suppress some spammer accounts (like aghoribabaji and Sk Swami ...)
