Shame the soccer arrests didn't get they guy who spams here

What can that spam idiot who keeps posting links to soccer and rugby sites possibly be getting besides carpal tunnel syndrome? Surely, no one clicks on the links. Sure wish the webmaster would someone fire off a couple of million spam messages back at them instead of just constantly deleting their posts. And can't the webmaster just block the IP address from the forum? Surely there can't be that many different creeps posting the same thing from all around the world to this relatively insignificant (in the grand scheme of things) forum.
