Spambot attacks are being really common in the forums nowaday, and they won't stop. Believe me, they get worse as time passes by, and we need to do something. Or we'll be filled in woman boots ads and the strangest kinds of porn ads posted in everywhere. The current method of ''see-and-destroy'' will get overrun sooner or later.

There's 4 solutions.

1. Include a CAPTCHA on registration. It's the most effective way of dealing with Spambots, and the thing about them reading it is very rare or just bullshit.
2. Have a few more mods here and there. Dr.Follis is unactive and doesn't do anything. He's a good user, but he's not even active and can't be a moderator. I suggest just one more person. And absolutely must be over 13 years old. (Trex is a exception as he's a cool guy.), Xander actually posts so he's fine. And it must be someone really active.
3. Include CAPTCHA when a person posts too much stuff in a short ammount of time.
4. Don't do anything and keep doing the same uneffective shit.

If the first three are added then there probably will be no bots. Along with some more rule enforcing because of the extra mod. If not, then what i said before will happen.

And here's a few tips to fellow users...

-Don't read the threads. What's the point?
-Don't click on any of the links. Most of them go to malicious websites.
-Don't post on them. Nor reply. They DON'T FUCKING LISTEN. Because they are BOTS. NOT people. I have seen some of you trying to talk with them and shit.
-Report on sight.
-Watch suspicious names.

Blahblahblah, comment stuff below.

The CAPTCHA ideas are great, we really need to stop these bots, and we do need more mods

I'm 14 though Irontaco :lol:

Omniary: fuck you anglerfish can't smell
Dr. Trialtrex21: how you know bitch
Omniary: it probably could smell you though
could probably smell your fucking dank ass nasty powersuit structure gel trog ass enslaved protein bullshit sloshing in your suit from a mile away

Even a more cool guy then.

Well, I turn 14 next month. The spambot attacks are getting pretty bad, and I think if we don't get a solution we may be completely overtake, like some other forums.

Bot attacks are going up and up so we need your opinions on this. Go to the IRC for a talk.

If mod positions are open, I'm willing to take one. I hate how some of the great game forums are being overtaken by bots...

Heh, me too, I've been trying to be a mod since the old forum.

No, please don't start going all modasking-whoring around. This is not an election. It's just so we can see solutions about this.

Sorry, didn't mean it, ignore it please. I have...impulses...
