Captcha for signups [Done]

[Strife]

As e_i_pi said, it seems most of these spam accounts are in fact humans - if they can click an activation email link they could definitely complete a captcha.

The good news is that I just finished coding our Anti-Spam Bot today. It should intercept any advertising spam and immediately website ban the user (permanently ).

Unfortunately I can't reveal the logic here for the spammers might see how to get around it!

Code: Select all

if (ip != lackattack) {
   accountStatus = banned;
}
