It would be nice if they disabled the captcha for vendor accounts. Its not a huge hassle but I doubt any spammers are going to shell out the money for a vendor account. Great work though, I was having a hard time sorting though all the spam to get to the real messages.

Its not a huge hassle

Which is probably why it won't be much of a deterrent. They should require depositing a certain amount of BTC before you can send messages.

On new accounts, or accounts with low stats, there could be a 3 day delay in withdrawing BTC, giving them time to identify people who are spamming. That way a spammer can't deposit BTC, send out a bunch of messages, and immediately withdraw the BTC. If someone is caught spamming, they just keep the BTC by banning the account, making it not worth it for the spammer.

Accounts with enough stats, like 10 transactions and $500 in purchases, could send messages without the BTC requirement.

I never thought spamming was that much of a problem to have to worry bout it that much?? I've gotten like 1 or 2 spam messages in 8 months or so
