I think UncleBob is right, while Arseen's method might be ok it would still risk newer members joining the community.
and tiktektak is allso right, there is alot of work in manual account activation.

I was actually going to start a topic about this a while ago, I just never felt a real push to do it. I don't mind deleting so many spam posts though. I feel like I wouldn't be doing my job otherwise. I also would not want to neglect any genuine new user. A lot of people lurk and join because of our community, not only our covers. Some people see strict quality standards as intimidating and without friendly people behind them, they'll just see it as too much work.

Gah
hopefully snowcone will chime in.
I guess what we do kinda works but it's still a pain in the ass.

I'm with AppleQueso on this. I've deleted my share of bot postings too and it's all rather bothersome.

By the way I'm surprised Arseen isn't a forum admin yet. If one of us don't catch a post when it goes up, Arseen's email is usually the first in my inbox :)
