ok so we have been having a bot proplem for the past few weeks. so i wus thinking why cant we use reCAPTCHA on making a new acc. yes i know i hate reCAPTCHA but it may stop this bot BS. tell me what u guys think? http://www.google.com/recaptcha
Makes sense to me. I am on several forums that use reCAPTCHA and we don't have an issue with bots, more real people that sign up to post their advertisements and other BS so we end up banning their IP addys.
The best thing to do is ignore them, you can tell which threads are bots. Just go back a page and par no attention, it's more annoying to actually read what they have to say than go back a page.
