I just started a new forum with bbpress 1.0.2. Akismet is catching spam and deleting the posts but the tags left by the spammers don’t get deleted.

So I had a couple of questions: first, is this a common problem and second, is there a way round it?

I’ve just installed the Human Test plug-in which will hopefully keep the bots off the forum but still won’t keep any human spammers away.

Thanks for any assistance.

Yes, this is a common problem and as far as I know there is no easy solution to it.

I suppose you can write a simple plugin/script to remove all tags inserted by a certain user from your database…
