I found an easy way to stop spammers who spam tons of accounts. Use Check User on any spam account flooded account, find out which ones were created by the same IP address, then block that IP address (anywhere from 1-4 years should be good). They may still create new accounts, but they will instantly be blocked after creation from doing anything.

:I wonder if 4 years are too long... (Why can't spammers change an IP, and the former one is left to a non-spammer, or it is a public IP?) --[[YiFei]] | <small>[[User talk:Zhuyifei1999|talk]]</small> 07:59, 27 September 2013 (UTC) | |||
