wow...now getting spam from RMTbots on my black list

[gamesmart]

Putting up filters to block out websites really won't work, as the bots will always find a way to circumvent those filters (hence the gratuitous spacing you might see in their messages).

I'm fairly sure that SE is aware of these bots, but are waiting to track down the rest of the RMT chain so they can take out the source rather than treat the symptoms. If not, then, well...

guess your right. these bots are like freaking mosquitos. life sucking mosquitos, no matter how many you swat there's always another.

I hate them as much as you do, but at this point there's not much else we can do but blacklist them, report them, and try to ignore the /shouts or /tells that leak through the blacklists. Hopefully SE does shut down the entire system soon, so we'll all be happier.
