    Dear mods,

    Its bad you guys, time to implement something. Please?'

    Disregard if you already have and it didn't work. I know theres a PHPbb mod that requires you enter text from a picture, those seem to work pretty well... but I dunno. Either that or you could recruit some people to weed out the fakes. Dont worry I know it won't be me.

    I think we're averaging 3 automated posts a day!

    Agreed.

    Maybe you can give some of the more respectable people, who we are pretty dang sure they wouldn't abuse their power, let them delete unwanted topics.

    i agree with all said above.

    its happening on ISSA and NCDSA as well.....they even register for contests. as chris said, the "type whats in the box" thing works really well.

    and not only is it spam, but its bringing porn onto the forum where kids have access to it.....not good

    thank you for your attention.

    I remember not liking this policy when i was a newb but some other forums have a rule where you are unable to post hyperlinks until you cross a certin number of posts. In my expirence it was 15. But who knows that could just encourge co. to make bots that post a whole helluva lot jsut to be able to get a hyperlink in.
