Fun fact of this board

[Deques]

There are over 1000 members registered in this board.
300+ are users with more than zero posts.
The rest are spam bots. Those are dead. I deleted them.

But..
Each day 20 or so new spam bots are registered each day. That's annoying.

?

So even though Kassidy changed the registration policy (here; viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2347), spam bots are registering? I do not see any more spamthreads lately on this board.......

Even with the crappy captcha, there are spam bots that are trying to register. But we have changed so instead of them verify the registration, we have to verify them by hand. But 700 new registration is way too many to verify.
So I just deleted all of them, along with legitimate registrations :(


Changed to a Q&A Captcha method.
Users now get questions to answer, instead of typing what's in the unreadable image

Now I am so glad I was able to remember my username and password. I wasn't sure if I would be able to since it had been over a year since my last visit.
