Why is it that every time I come to the forum the newest registered user is something like Dwwyxxzb. It seems like spammers or something to me, but they rarely (there are exceptions) seem to even post a message. What is the point of joining the forum if you're not going to write anything, especially for a spammer? Sorry if the answer is obvious...
Some forums list the "webpage" that the user registers with in their memberlist. So, the goal is to help them spam, but we don't cooperate. We don't list their website in the profile pages.

We also used to get a lot more spam until a ITH developed some code that prevented users from posting links until they have made 10 posts. That seems to foil most would be spammers and spam bots.
