https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPTCHA

CAPTCHA is a way of preventing these bots making new accounts.
Will this work? CAPTCHA makes a image with letters, twists those letters, and adds a slight gradient to the background.
Bots will try to read it, but they will fail.


Also, a bot sent me a scam letter, and the website is being hosted from a IP address.
I did a WHOIS lookup, and this is what I found (Moderators, don't be sure if this is where the bot's creator is. It may be a proxy IP.): http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/94.242.254.74

I just got 5 messages from a spammer this month

Let's say there's a Captcha system if you make an account.

I support this.

There is already CAPTCHA usage in this website. However, giving out any IP is NOT permitted openly on a public forum.

CAPTCHA is the single most annoying thing I have ever come across.

*looks at twisted letters and words*

*types it correctly*

*NOPE, YOU'RE WRONG*

I hate the thing, but if it could really stop the scam bots.....

Don't give out anyone's IP address, it's not safe.

Still a good thread, support.
