Just to let other directory owners know I am getting a lot of spam/bulk submissions from the IP address 74.200.*.* range. They may possibly be from a paid submission service rather than an individual with lots of sites.
My advice is to setup up multiple emails -_- and then try to use a good spam fighting software and try to block the emails. 3 For Personal (1 for school, homework ect..) 1 for hosting 1 for google adsense and ad companies you feel safe with 1 for lower companies that you kinda trust lol ect.. Sounds like a lot of Emails but u can easily find a email manager or something or make one using a macro ;D
Dreads, since this is the directories forum, the chances are he's not talking about email spam. Directory spam is different, it basically means people/bots submitting lots of crap websites that violate directory guidelines, go to the wrong categories, or are multiple (unpaid) submissions of the same website to many categories.
I have this problem alot.. i blocked the ip.. and that kept my directory clean for a week or so but now their back
