What's up with all the spam bots?

Is there some kind of security breach or have they found a new way to automate the registering process for vBulletins?

I’ve reported alot of spam posts already, but due to the 60 second posting interval, you can’t keep up :stuck_out_tongue:
It’s all about in-game money for MMORPG’s too (World of Warcraft, Runescape etc)

It’ll be automated, they’ve just managed to do it for this version of vbulletin.

Vlado - i’d reccomend getting one of the ‘type in the numbers in the image to login’ things, there are loads of pre-made ones around that your admin can customise slightly and it’ll stop all this without you needing to close any forums.

Captcha

That would be a Captcha

This is actually ON right now (e.g. registering requires both image verification and email address verification). There is still spam…

Best regards,
