Spammers, Users, and Questions

We have spammers. Yes, people still do this.
One would think that by now most internet users are aware that spammers are nothing more than low life scum, and offer nothing productive, but the internet denizens continue in abundance.

Every day I prune the users - deleting, blocking, and searching username and IP addresses. It is a waste of my time. It is the first thing that is done every day in the maintenance of this website. The longer it takes, the less new items are posted here, because taking care of spammers is the number one priority.
