When you login or signup, there should be a CAPTCHA that you need to fill out to make the account. To prevent scambots and spambots who made their account before the update, ROBLOX should add a CAPTCHA to the forums and comments.

Support for comments but nothing else. Captchas are REALLY annoying to fill out, I'd rather deal with the occasional spam wave than have to type increasingly scrunched up words into a box every time I want to say something.

Because God forbid you type in a few letters to stop bots from messing up the forums, or other chat systems in ROBLOX. @above

What "bots"? Most of the scam site comments are posted by actual users. The scam sites just say "Paste this on 5 different games or you get nothing!" and they do it. CAPTCHA doesn't defeat stupidity.

I've also yet to see any major bot attacks on the website. By the way, you do realize the more times you hit a captcha the more difficult it gets right? So what first starts as a "few letters" eventually becomes a 30 character mess that looks like it got flattened by Rosie O'Donnell and takes longer to decipher than it does to write your post in the first place.

@Intern most of the users posting the scam sites are bots. I once commented on a front page game, refreshed the page and I couldn't find my comment because of all the scam comments. If about 30 comments can be posted in a page refresh, I am pretty sure the commenters are bots.

Like I said, then add it for comments, but forums and login/registration? No.

(By the way, a captcha already kicks in if you try to register more than two accounts per hour or log in an unusually high number of times.)

There's already a CAPTCHA for registration. If you make too many accounts too fast it'll ask you to put it in.

Stupid filter.

I meant to say that that CAPTCHA appears when you have lots of traffic on your IP. Bots have VPNs and Proxies that hide their IPs, so they don't get that CAPTCHA.

If they don't have them, they'd be gone by now.

I hate this filter.

I'd love entering CAPTCHA entries every time I try to post. /s
Only having a CAPTCHA every time if a person tries to log in is fine.


In a distant forum post, ROBLOX's filters were fine.
