    Message for all Spammers!

    Don't even bother, OK?

    I mean, if you can't even be bothered to write your post using proper, legible, English, what is the point? The Mods will only delete you, and your posts, so go away and annoy someone else instead!

    Thank you!

    Usually their bots/automated scripts.. Despite being a bit un-userfriendly, would the forum not be better off against all these registrations if the CAPTCHA plugin was installed?

      Sadly Glutton, they don't read posts either!

            Sorry, a moment of madness there! LOL

            Sometimes it just winds me up, and I never could keep me gob shut!

              I 'googled' it;

              What is a CAPTCHA?

                Hehe - those annoying things where you have to type the (sometimes) barely legibile characters

                  Oh - if you'd just said 'used the wobbly letters' I'd have understood.

                  We need something - it's a bit mental at the moment.

                    Well, it is, for a numpty like me! LOL

                      I just tried to register again and they are using CAPTCHA, think they have done for a while. Certainly I remember trying to do searches when I'd forgotten to log in and being faced with a set of "wobbly characters" before it would let me search.
                      There are 10 kinds of people in the world, those that understand binary and those that don't.

                            The spammers are already using CAPTCHA: they use it to make up their user names. How else could you come up with GH;4HP8 or wyuianor;la

                              I think Cuckoo is a better word than spammer.
