Trust me, there is no point in blocking the spambots now. They can't make userpages, so all they can do is register. The only downfall that comes of this is the fact that they will clog up [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]], and blocking each individual bot will only double the amount of clogging. Take a look at [http://mutecity.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges F-Zero Wiki's Recent Changes], they put autoconfirmed rights in place, so all the spambots can do is register, nothing more. It's better for all of us if you don't bother.

Should users be autoconfirmed in order for us to greet them or have them make one useful contribution to the wiki? <span style="font-family:Footlight MT Light">[[User:IceBlue|<font style="color:royalblue">'''Ice'''</font>]][[User talk:IceBlue|<font style="color:darkblue">'''Blue'''</font>]][[Special:Contributions/IceBlue|<sup>[C]</sup>]]</span> 20:36, 25 September 2012 (MDT) | |||
