There is a Capcha on registration and a spam filter that uses a third party to filter posts. For every post you see, there are tons that don't get through the filter.
Unfortunately there are actual humans posting this spam, so it isn't easy to block. I've made some improvements that alert the mods to spam posts faster for them to be dealt with, so most are up for less than 10 minutes. I'll continue to do what I can to make things even better as time allows.
SoM also has filters that you can use to weed the spam posts out. Once you submit the spammer details and posts to sfs, they are in the database, from memory.
You should look into it further. Its a very very powerful tool.
