CAPTCHA for new signups

Postby galapogos01 » November 24th, 2013, 8:57 am

Seems we have a lot of spam posts lately. Is there a phpBB plugin to add a CAPTCHA to the signup process and stop the bots getting in?

Cheers,
Jason

Certainly looked like boosted is being targeted pretty hard.

Also, I don't think site email is working properly as none of my subscribed posts are alerting me?

Hey guys, we're currently trying to work through it. John implemented a new verification system but the spammers are still getting through. In the last few days we have banned over 200 spammers :banghead:
