Spammers!!!

Haha I was very close to posting on one;

'if only I had to power'

Hahah :) admin do a great job as it is, the forum is growing so fast!
 
Hi all,

I'm pleased to say that Paulo aka LondonDragon, UKAPS Admin, has worked his magic resulting in what I hope is no more spam (for the time being, at least).

Registration method is more complex, which we hope will stop the vast majority of attempts. Also over 200 dubious accounts had been deleted.

Thanks for your patience.

Cheers,
George
 
I had the same issue on our board a few months ago. We added in a security question (drop down select field) and not activate members automatically. Also the first 3 posts need to be approved by moderator. We still get a lot of spam registrations much less than before, but they can't post to the forum anymore.

Maybe it's not ideal for newcomers, but a great protection to avoid spammers. Good luck with the fight ;)
