|

I would like to see a CAPTCHA or required email verification for users signing up for new accounts. Any chance of that getting implemented, IM? |

Actually, I've had e-mail verification on since early 2003 and we do have a random image verification confirmation code. I've started banning e-mail addresses. All of these bots have got something@somethingesle.ru _________________

Would it be possible for you to disable e-mail verification, let one of us register a name under that e-mail address, and then turn e-mail verification back on, so that no one could use that e-mail address again?
EDIT: Wait... I just realized their actual e-mail is probably NOT Something@somethingesle.ru. Sorry for being an idiot! |

.ru is a Russian website, right? We should just ban all Russians. They're commies anyway. _________________ UP DOWN UP DOWN LEFT LEFT RIGHT RIGHT A B START |

Damn, those are some smart bots. Mind if I ask what you're using for the random image verification? |

Cube and I feel the bots are utilizing some sort of phpBB flaw. Somehow, they're also setting their language to Russian, which isn't possible if you go through the registration page. _________________

And as we all know, phpBB is full of flaws... _________________ Activate point A by sliding slide B through points E and Z, so that the Joint TO touches the Vector 6, however avoiding an impact with vectors 34 and 5, which both are positioned at the edge of the said object near point R. Period.
Remember, Giz! You MIGHT get that candy, if you only behave well... Only.
