Can we not implement a rule that all new members first posts have to be moderated before they can be seen?....

There has been a lot of everything:
  • Annoying scammer/telemarketer phone calls to my personal and work phone, and I think they spoof the phone number using VOIP services. Half the time the number appears local, but it really isn't.
  • Tons of spam passing through the filters using random spoofed sender domains affecting G-Mail and work e-mail. IT at my workplace are working hard trying to filter this stuff out.
  • Heck, even news reports of local scams with someone hanging notes on doors with an urgent message to call some number.
  • Chaos in this world...

Lots of work for the human moderators. NSXPrime has a system setup such that new members must answer a math question, and sometimes it's beyond 5th grade level.

There's a fairly prolific one running wild right now. Mods!

you need to keep up with vbulletin updates,
check this for an example.
there are A LOTS of exploits out for the vBulletin Version 3.8.4

also if you had updated a new plugin onto this forum, check that out.
