Title: 50 spam accounts to every 1 legitimate account
Post by: mexicovisitor on January 03, 2014, 12:30:30 PM
I am getting bombarded with spam sign ups for my forum. Each day I am deleting 20-30 spammers who registered and trying to filter out the one legitimate person who registered. How can I figure out another way?

Could I change registration so they email me to ask to be part of the forum?

Suggestions?

Thanks
