I saw this spam also, deleted it and set the user to not active.

But no time for congrats... i currently don't know why, but our superspammer could login even he is set inactive. And he could also write spams which are visible, even the keywords are used. Both do not work locally: If i copy and paste the spam posts shipped with e-mail to a new topic on my local installation it ever got hidden. Why does it not work on wl.widelands.org?
If i set a user inactive and try to login, it does not work (The login error "Username and Password didn't match" appears). This happens locally and i tried it also on widelands.org: Created a new user, activated him, set him inactive and then the new user isn't able to login. Why could the superspammer login?

My plan is for now:
- get the most annoying posts hidden (next step is to add the check for international phone numbers)
- then change the notifications to only inform admins (or forum moderators) about the hidden posts
- make the workflow better to make non spam visible or delete spam, like the suggestion in #41
- then add the akismet check, which may need also some changes to the userinterface
