How to Get Banned

@ciadmin

I too appreciate your consistency in this annoying matter.  [Quick question] Are you manually checking these accounts or are you using a tool to assist you? Just wondering...

It's mostly manual
The forum app does provide a list of posts from new users, which helps. I also go through all the new users myself, looking for "tells", and periodically dive through the database looking for candidates who warrant a deeper look.

It takes 5-15 minutes per sweep, depending on the activity, and I do it several times a day. It would probably be possible to automate a lot of that, but life is too short to invest in that, given the long list of higher priority things to do
