Spam posts

Hallo all
We seem to have had a marked rise in the number of "spam" postings of late, and I'm considering moderating all new forum membership requests. If I do so then an obvious first question will be "What's your CSK number?". But there are people on here who don't own a CSK who will find this difficult to answer!
Do people have a view on this? Is it better to put up with the nonsense posts and allow everyone free access to the site, or should we secure it in better ways?
Please also note that if you use the "report this message" link then this does get to me and I do jump in and do something asap. Many thanks to those of you that do this already - it's how I get to clean things up!
