Bug Description
This is similar to bug #696037, but addresses a different problem.
On the locoteams page for Ubuntu-us-mi, we track the #ubuntumi tag. Unfortunately, spammers have glommed on to this as a potential way to get some link juice for their wares.
Would it be possible to disallow any post that has multiple hash-tags (or even multiple ubuntu* tags) from showing up in the microblogging window? We don't have direct control over the hash tags like we do over the identi.ca groups, so policing this is extremely difficult.
Thanks!

Behavior confirmed....the only current recourse is to go back to the twitters and report the offending spammers.
