There's another spam attack happening now in Info Desk: "love problems" with phne numbers.

Is there an easy way to see whether there are any senior mods on FT, given that the forum mods aren't around now?

Alternatively, does FT have the technology--not commenting on whether this policy would be desirable--to block a new member from making more than a few posts in a short period of time? Or would it be possible--again, I'm not commenting on the desirability of such a policy--to allow a new member perhaps three posts during the first day and then send all additional posts by that person to a moderation queue even if they don't have links, etc.?
