The machines are invading.

WAKE UP NEO...

Dwarf (I think) was like 10 steps ahead of you guys.

We've been trying really hard to get rid of them. Well, Losperman and Blackberry have, anyway.
They're getting passed our captcha somehow, and even waiting out the week long lurking period, so we've been blocking bot e-mail addresses and keywords from registration, and banning suspicious new registrations.

i mentioned it to Zombie Lincoln a few weeks ago, it's strange how we're having such a sudden income of them, considering i aint seen them here before now.

Need better captcha.

... I'm extreeeeemely tempted to do this, just because I love riddles, and I feel like learning how, but it wouldn't take much to bypass this. Same reason we decided against having a question about the identity of the king of the portal or whatever- the bots could very easily be programmed to respond with the correct answer to any field with a consistent answer.

But we would know if they were determined to get this site specifically spammed if they programmed a answer into the bots.

WHta you could do is do multiple pictures of clock, with say 3 or so pictures of SBC and make them pick out of a list.

And randomize it.

I've already banned at least like 50 of those fuckers in one evening and they just keep coming back.

Solution: Add a flash based registration component.
