What? Are you saying that Doug and Jordan are actually allowed to sleep at night?
I usually stop and check the site early in the morning before continuing my sleepy-eyed trek to the treadmill. But Jordan is a true morning person and is always up with the spam cleared out before I ever get there. 
have you ever considered adding Captcha technology to the sign-up process?
We do have one but it only appears when certain suspicious conditions are met because we don’t want everyone to have to deal with it to sign up. Apparently, someone has figured out how to sign up without looking so suspicious. Our software learns as it goes but for some reason it’s a bit slow catching on to this one.
I’m kind of curious if my posting on here from France has anything to do with it.
Nope.
By the way, Jordan and I were just discussing the idea of making some of you junior moderators so you can just remove the spam with a click rather than reporting it and waiting for us to deal with it. Many of you are long-time trusted members of this community who have been reporting spam anyway, so it might make sense to that if I can wrangle the software to make it happen.
