Registering to forum Captcha sucks

(1/4) > >>

ZASto:
As per subject.
Captcha should be more complicated one. I just logged off, tried to register a couple of times, just to see how easy is to create an account. It was enough to click on "I'm not a robot" and ... spamer goes through.
Hope that someone will fix this problem (NFS)

Also wish there was a better filtering process.

Hi Russ,
on other forums a new members first post must be approved by a moderator before its posted. That would filter out
some spam but also put the pressure on very few moderators.

There are by my count 14 Global Moderators of which perhaps three or four are active.

Hi Craig.
 I've seen that as well. Sometimes have to wait  too long IMO.
I'd hate to risk blocking a legitimate need for support just to catch the occasional slice of spam ... even for a short time.
 As long as it doesn't any worse that it has been recently, I suppose we can handle it as is.
If it gets out of hand, I'm sure the administrators will make the necessary changes.
And maybe even enlist new recruits.

I have my own small forum, and spammers are a huge problem. I had to set new users to be inactive until approved, as I get about 100 spammers signing up every day.
A few days ago I had to delete 40,000 accounts.
