If that's the case, then when a page is hidden the metadata should be updated to remove it from the search indexes. If you search 'pandora site:lesswrong.com' on Google, all the pages are still there, and can be followed back to LW. That is to say, the spammers are still benefiting from every piece of spam they've ever posted here.
Emphasising parent. If spammers don't get any benefit from including this site in their bots then they are less likely to take the effort to include it - and the effort of handling catphcas and configuring to local conditions.
I just did the search and noticed that both HP:MoR and RationalWiki://lesswrong make it onto the first page. Neither of them include the word 'pandora'. That's impressive!
