WTH I am really getting pissed at all the human spam dumbasses

    Where the hell do these people get lists of all the forums on the Internet? I mean seriously, I have been learning and working very hard on my latest project and people keep going to my site to register and then just add a link to their home page. They never contribute to the forum, they never post or even reply to one stinking thing. I know its human because my forum it behind a human question and captcha....
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Its called a "spam bot "

    They are not real :(

    Oh and also this is the "suggestions" for this forum not yours :)

    This thread should be in Forum Management

    That forum will also help you with a lot of those questions as well.

    Hope this helps

    It's possible the bot owners have the answers programmed into the bot.

    I made my question up myself and have other verification on my forum and have nothing now. Its like the spammers have given up...ha ha I have won!

    grr spam merchants! I wouldn't mind but why post links to a baby clothing site on a gambling forum...at least spam some sites that are relevant.

    its very much possible tht some people are paid to do this, its a stupid thing they are wasting their time and troubling the forum owners, you can have some one hired to kill them.
