Is the new captcha a failure? Because they're still registering on the wiki.
Could it be that it's not a spambot but a person doing it. Readying multiple accounts for a simultaneous attack? They could be using multiple machines, for example on a net cafe or a school network.

Though BT's image is kind of negative, I don't know why would someone spam us with these accs.
I manage a blog and get some "louis vutton bags buy please" kind of comments. And BT's blog is the same. So I don't think it's just BT's problem.

I've posted it on the wiki spammer forum but...
Purge? Anyone up for a purge?
And I think I know why they're spamming...
