Of course I want copies of this spam, so that I can block it from within Bad Behavior, so you'll (sooner or later) also have the ability to mark it and have it automatically forwarded to me. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to complete this feature prior to release, (MediaWiki special pages are a real pain, and there is NO documentation on making them) but it's coming in the very near future.

For example, say a bot gets past BB. I'd like to be able to drill down in the database (or preferrably an online admin tool), look for patterns myself, and if I see a pattern, add a regex or what have you to a list.
