This is meant for all the *SPAMMERS* in the world... If I knew who you were id punch you square in the mouth.. so tired of stupid people in society... OK who else wants to join my rant?
 
Jim, Could set it up so that you need 5 posts before you can post links & pics.

Problem Solved with the first post spammers.

It would not solve anything. They would still post, there just wouldn't be a link. Then I'd have to answer 20 emails a week about "Why I can't put a link in my post...are you censoring me...".

These spammers are not people physically going in and registering and making posts. They are spambots which are constantly attacking sites. Trying to register thousands of times a day. Once they register, they then have to be able to make a post and get past whatever other blocks we have in place. Too many blocks and the users get pissed. Too few blocks and there is too much spam (and the users get pissed). So there must be a happy medium found in the middle. Every now and again, the stars align, and a spambot is able to post its spam to our site. There is a little button on each post that you can use to "report" the post. So the only person that gets bothered about it is me and the moderators. If you reply to the spam posts, or create more posts regarding the spam posts, then you are basically helping their cause.
 
Jim again I am Thankful for all you do for us here.... it just gets old day in and day out.. nothing else you can do I think you do a great job with this site... I had 35 spam messages in my email this am as well just wanted to vent with the CSR brotherhood...
 
Install Spam-O-Matic for vB. 99.9999999% of the spam will automatically go *poof*
 
I don't know how a spambot can read & type in the captcha to sign up. :smt017

Maybe someone could answer that for me. :smt001



THANKS Jim & Others for all you do for The Good Ship CSR. :thumbsup: . :thumbsup:

Thats probably why there are thousands of attempts and few successful registrations. when I made the question more random and difficult then I had to answer multiple emails a day about why the answer is so difficult, but spam was reduced to practically nothing. See the comment about the happy medium above.


What is interesting about that?
