It's evident that in spite of these deletions, a number of threads crop up again and you have to do the tidying up once you come back. It's best to consult with @rudra who I think is most involved with such technicalities and come up with some solution.
I remove many spam posts / threads every day. If some threads are there, rest assured that they will get deleted in few hours at the most. This has worked for last 8 - 9 years .
Yes, I know that you, as mods, have been removing these spam threads for a long time. This is precisely one of the reasons that I wanted some solution to this problem, so that you guys would not have to engage in such unnecessary work almost on a daily basis. Plus, having too many spam posts, even for a short duration, might not be a good advertisement for IFN. People who visit this forum looking for quality news on Indian football might be put off by such threads.
Thanks @hassan for informing me. I will upgrade the forum software next week, this is likely to decrease spam attacks. The forum might go offline for a bit during the backend changes.
@rudra thanks buddy..!! Just asking a doubt ..!! Will the new upgraded version of vanilla forums support Tapatalk plugin ?? Is there anyway we can enable Tapatalk in IFN ??
now-a-days, we are seeing spam threads frequently .. As we are unable to restrict these spams, can we make all important discussions as Announcement. so that spams will move into 2nd page.

I hope that IFN does not go offline for too long...I, like other fanatics, tend to go into massive depression if I cannot access IFN
