@warzan – you certainly got rid of them quickly enough! Nice work.

If it wasn’t for the notification emails, only those of us actually viewing the site at the time would have even been aware (it’s partly why I didn’t bother reporting it the last few times it happened, as it was dealt with so quickly).

Maybe there’s some kind of “filter list” and if certain words appear more than an acceptable number of times, it could go into a “moderation queue”? Yes it’s a little bit more admin – but probably not much more than responding to the original complaints and deleting the content? Not sure how sophisticated your CMS system is, but something that could identify *possible* objectionable content and throw it in to a “are you sure?” list might be an answer?
