After a month of waiting TA releases the worst version of the game they have. Last time I played Forgotten attacks with morale I left it. It sucked that bad. Games are suppose to be fun not work. TA ...

Hi! I'm back after a long time and I want to tackle this spammer problem the proper way.
If he's able to spam 100+ threads worth of non-sense and "eula breaking word syntax", then this means that there might not be even a he, perhaps a spam bot. One possibility I see is that this is not a single spam bot but maybe a "DDoS" or Distributed Denial of Service - designed to specifically to overload and crash the server. It seems however that he failed for attempting to stop the forums. Maybe he hates TA to the point he created a DDoS to crash the forums.
I could suggest this, create a new forums with restrictive controls to players who has morals... e.g. whitelist only players who really prefer the game and are within the terms of service. In that forums, move all the recent topic and reclassify them inside. Leave a "Open-air" forums for new players, spammers and novices to mingle, with content auto-resetting every few days.
I also want to see a RA series fashioned after TA, and it seems Yuri is the best substitute for the forgotten, challenging and filled with unexpected twists.
Like each time you fail an offfense against Yuri, you loose a unit if there is a mind-control unit within the defense setup. Those 2 units must meet at the attack at some point. What happens to the unit is simple, it gets added to the defense of Yuri's. Take note that Mind-control units and structures should appear in a small percentage only. Instead of 2 to choose from why not 3? The factions from RA3.
