A service built to fight spam, gets spam on it's forum.
If someone doesn't think the technical stuff, it's ironic!

And how do protect against humans who write spam paid in low salary countries?

I believe that the vast majority of spam posts, are made by humans and not totally automated bots, so this works against human spammers too.
I am not saying it's perfect, but as long as they need email and IP to register here, http://www.stopforumspam.com/ forum plugin, might reduce the burden of moderating spammers.

Another solution, would be Akismet.
Or you can use a combo of them: Advanced Block MOD

The reason I am trying to suggest counter-measures against spam in your forum, is because
I am irritated by spam very much, but probably that's why I am here and using Trashmail in the first place.
I don't want to moderate spam posts, I bet neither you do.
