When we get spammed, the messages stay on the front page( http://www.techimo.com/forum/ ), even after the Admin removes them, until they are cycled out by the next post.
Is there any way to remove them from the index page without waiting for the next post??

The only way to get rid of spam on the recent topic box is like how the old saying goes, "Fight fire with fire", meaning: just spam in the other threads to bump the spam threads out!  Fight the power! |

| Simple solution
Most spammers are newbies with less than 10 posts. Moderate all new users whos posts are less than 10! So the post won't even show up until its approved. If they spam, warn them and delete the post. If they do it again, lock the account. So they will have to start over with a new account with a post count of 0. |
