Spammer to be destroyed

Post by bradb » Thu Apr 09, 2009 1:26 pm

We are working to relieve you all of this annoying clingon, patience please. The bossman said he is going to change some stuff up this evening. Until then I'll try to keep up on deleting these tiresome posts.

Am I missing something about spamming? I just don't understand the the waste of time going through the trouble to post crap about nothing. I could understand if you could see someone get pissed. Oh well, I'll just add it to my list of things that I'll never understand.

It is mostly automated registrations that are somehow getting it. They are bots that will post random messages that have links in the text. If you click on one of the links, bad things could happen. I've increased the difficulty of the captcha (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) again and added two more required questions to the registration form. We'll see if this helps.

Well, those changes seemed to have totally eliminated the spambot registrations. We were getting about 10 fake registrations a day with only a couple being able to complete the process with a valid email. We've had zero fake registrations since the changes!! :beer2
