This spam problem hasn't gone away. Everytime I visit the forrm there's spam to delete. Sometimes that can be a dozen times a day. Take a look at all of the ones I've deleted just today (a full mod has to delete them fully)

I'll sort this for you now Neil....

Done........

It's not having them there awaiting deletion that's the problem mate - it's that there's a dozen of them a day and peter is never here so can't take measures to prevent it happening.

I don't know how hard it would be to implement, but wouldn't one of those random picture generators in the sign-up page cut most of it out? You know the thing I mean - 'enter the digits shown in the picture on the right'.

This has been in place for some time actually, so the spammers are still finding a way around it unfortunately...

The way I solved it on my forum was to set a field that asked a question, so you can ask like "What is 2 + 5?" and as it;s int text format, the spambots can't do it, and without the correct answer it won't let you register at all.
