A final step could be locking the board down to admin approval -- a user registers, and an approval request is sent to me or Jim before they can post. We may consider this if these new measures don't do the trick. Fingers crossed.

Recent spam - now using ReCaptcha
by RJ_Smith » Tue Nov 01, 2016 11:35 pm
Hi all, I've updated the ban list with over 1.7 million additional IPs. It's possible some legitimate users could be caught by the new lists - if you know of anyone having problems joining this board through the IP bans please let me know. The anti-spam signup challenge now also uses Google ReCaptcha, which was surprisingly easy to integrate. We'll see if that slows down spam automation.
