If you haven’t noticed, someone’s been spamming a few pages in the wiki, inserting links. It’s not that big of a deal yet, since spotting and removing them is rediciously easy, but is there a more permanent solution to this? I’m not schooled in the wonderful art of wiki-editing, so I wouldn’t know how this would work.
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. New players are always welcome and can join in at any time.
BlogNomic is powered by pMachine ExpressionEngine.

I don’t know how this can be dealt with, either. I haven’t noticed the spam yet, though—which pages were hit?
Purplebeard:
Just some random pages: the ruleset and a few ‘talk’-pages. The most recent changes to the wiki are tracked, so you can see the changes in the wiki.

I’m banning these users for several decades, and I think their IP addresses as well.
