How do you control spammers?

Lately we've been coming across too many spammers joining and spamming just to get some skins. Most of the people on the board only have the 15 post requirement for getting the skins, and that's it.

Any techniques you use to get more members to join to post and not just for something else?

So you must try and protect them more state that only non-spam posts will count towards getting skins and such.
