Akots' idea has my preference as well, if these spambot postings continue appearing at they rate they are now. I have no idea how spambots function, but maybe it could be possible to have new members post a single post in a "registration forum" which then activates their full account?

This way, spambots are prevented from posting anywhere else on the forum, and it still allows new members to start posting topic right from the bat (since the registration post could be seen as part of the activation of their account).
