Good idea, I didn't know Leaf could do that. Yes sometimes I forget when trashing, and leave a link.

Also good, I know you (and a few others) visit often and keep the house clean for everyone else.

Ok - this is what I've done so far
Members who have the status Lurker (under 3 posts) need to have their post approved by a diamond member before it will go live. Once they have made 3 posts, they can post as normal. Diamond members should now see a Moderate tab on the top.. this is where they can see posts than need approval. I'll also try to check the unapproved posts regularly, and delete accounts that are simply wanting to post spam.
Hopefully this reduces the amount of spam we get here.

This is a great idea. Just checked the moderate posts and all four are porn clickbait.
Is there a way I can put a block on them? Then you can just look at this whenever you like and delete the profile.

Sounds like an excellent move! Hopefully this will reduce the amount of spam posted here, which is downright ridiculous in spurts.
Unfortunately, on my own blog, I had to simply turn off comments. I was getting 10 spam posts for every valid one. :(

That should work, and I'm happy to help with the moderation.
Thank you, Leaf.
