      We have a lot of spam. Can it be fixed?

          They are working on it.  They have a IT company working on it.  The CAPTCHAs have changed recently, which was the first attempt we've seen on the users end.  But its strange that it's not completely fixed by now since its been going on so long.

          They probably could get by with adding a Honeypot and hiding the fake fields from real users to stump the spam bots. But maybe they are looking for a service to manage this in the forum.  Whatever the solution, let's hope this gets fixed soon.
