Not me ya fat nosed huskey thingy.
No PM to me.....yet
But is there a way to filter the spam registrations here?
Can the registration include a question & answer part?
Doesn't need to be mensa level.
Just a simple question that the bots won't be able to answer.

That's a good idea. We've set up a couple of questions to answer when registring to Dawnrazor and it has worked out well for us.Pista wrote: But is there a way to filter the spam registrations here?

One of my security questions on an internal system is "What did Gift cost?" Not difficult to answer for a fan, but pretty much impenetrable for a spamster.Nic wrote:That's a good idea.

Brrrr....
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
Pants question isn't possible. Not sure how legitimate newbies would feel when registering their current pant hue though
& if they were "going commando" that would also be awkward.
Any question really, but with a simple answer that anyone knows & before you say, "everyone knows what colour (note the spelling) pants they are wearing", there is a good chance there will be an assortment.
Mmmmmm.....thinks "database"......
The answer needs to be something uniform & simple.
The bots won't get through that.
