Our fan site runs a very busy clan chat, and for the past 3 days, it has been a target of very persistent spam bot accounts. I alone have collected over 500 800 account names. We've had spam before, but nothing like this. This is threatening to make our Clan Chat unusable. Is there anything that can be done? Here is a sample of some of the names:

A tactic we used for the reddit friends chat which helped combat this was setting the entry level to friends only and adding as many of the regulars to the chat as possible.

After a week or so you should be able to revert it.
