Nairaland antispam bot is so retarted especially getting banned for only God knows what. Seun and his cohorts should do something about this

idealogical:
The only threat to this thread is spam bot because it blocks participation and disables posters for days. This thread is not at least 400 -500 pages because of spam bot.

Blanket spam bot ban regardless the thread, posters and what's being posted sounds very shortsighted and counter productive because I don't see the wisdom in banning active content producers for no fault of their own and what you can not even advice them per how to avoid.
