Spam prevention on the forums

SalsaInABowl

So recently, there have been a bunch of spam posts out o nowhere just in the past few weeks. Now, I signed up almost a year ago, so I wanted ask that if there isn't already a Captcha, please put one in. Or maybe find another way to stop SpamBots.

As long as the forums will be up, spambots will be posting. Our job is to delete whenever we see it and ban the user.
Besides, there are kinds of spambots that can get around those CAPTCHAs, it isn't really useful these days.

1. We have a captcha
2. This is the suggestions section. Saying "hey i think you should fix this" is not a good suggestion.

1. That is not stalking, that is just clicking on a username.
2. You said you signed up a year ago.
3. We have a captcha as stated above as well as our Staff doing a good job preventing and deleting various spam posts.
