Many spammers use profile pages as a way to spam their links for SEO campaigns. However, for the forum owner, these spam backlinks can be damaging as it's not good to be linking to often illegal sites.
On my own forum, it's easy enough to catch profile page spammers as we only have a few new sign ups a day. So I can easily check the profile pages. However, on another forum that I admin, there are also thousands of profiles from years past that were never checked by previous staff for illegal links. I don't want to leave those profiles up. But sorting through them all seems like an over whelming task. Not even sure where to start.
