Spam on the main site

So a while back I opened up the comments section on each post on the main site.
One thing I love about classic gaming sites is how people would comment beneath a post and actually get a conversation going.
However, the site has recently been bombarded with bot posts for porn
The way to get around this is to make each comment require admin approval before showing up on the site.
I know this is a pain in the ass but I am logged in everyday so I can check and delete bot posts and approve real posts.
One thing that I have always wanted for the site is to let people log in to comment using their forum credentials.
From what I have read, apparently this needs to be done at the beginning when starting a site and forum.
Hopefully I can figure that out one day.
Anyways, feel free to post on the news section on the main site. I'm always logged in to check
