Time for a Captcha?

Post by Julian D. A. Wiseman »

Approximately every day I send a PM to admin alerting him to yet more spam. Please could there be a CAPTCHA for every new post? Or for every third post? Or something?

Yes Spammers

Yes, the spam activity on the board has picked up significantly in the last few days.

We currently use CAPTCHA for registration on the site, but the spammers have obviously found a back door they are exploiting. I have been in contact with the developers of the forum software, and although this is a known issue, they are working with me to resolve it and at least hopefully slow down the amount of spam that ends up on our boards.

Spam is, unfortunately, a reality of the Internet, but we are doing everything we can to eliminate it from our forum. We hope to have some new anti-spam solutions installed within the week, so thanks for your patience.
