Ad Bot infiltrating the "Science and Shamanism" section!

[Humming]

The users, politicgirls, chineboyman, bobby_smollet, YobnisObZemlu, ladyinreds, chatlanin, and Lured all seem to be ad bots that keep posting the same incoherent message, followed by advertizing links, again and again:

They all post in the first topic they encounter on the board. A bandaid solution would be to make the first topic something that any user could post to but only users with admin rights could read.

Or if UBB doesn't allow the admin to assign user permissions in that manner, just make the first topic something like 'Spam goes here', then the actual board users would avoid whatever gets posted there.

We can add the user "abcd5674" to that list as well.
