Currently new accounts can be automatically moderated if they share the same IP as a banned member. There are various other red flags that could spell trouble.

Please add more triggers to optionally moderate new accounts:
  • Moderate New Account if Home page is filled in.
  • Moderate New Account if profile fields contain a link.
  • Moderate new Account if profile fields contain keywords

Over the years such functionality has proved to be very useful with flagging problematic accounts and reducing spam.

Moderate new Account if profile fields contain keywords

I'm wondering whether running the entire account profile through Akismet (assuming it is configured) would help identify spam keywords here? Not sure how feasible that is.
