It would kill some of these spam thread, if this forum just asked some stupid question like 1+3=? if a spam member can't answer what "4" it killed right there. Less Headache. :wink:

    Sounds good to me but would vBulletin® Version 3.8.1 support such a thing? Since the 1st of the year, it seems as if SPAM has increased tenfold.

    Not 100% sure if vBulletin also it, but I would Wow if it didn't everthing else for free does it. vBulletin which is not free, I can't why they don't support it, may need a plug for sure.

    You give me too much credit, Trey.

    Maybe Justin can get off the blow up doll for a stint and find this out, Steve.

    Must if not all spamers are basically a computer which joins forums to post spam. Being a computer they don't know what the spam question will be, I needed to do myself for a forum and it works. A stupid question and it's done, mine Fill in the Blank AB_D a computer answer it and they killed right there. Can't Join and then can't post.

    What is Mathew Polk's last name?

    Wow - I would hope even a Spam Bot could figure that one out...

    Patrick is quite capable of handling this guys, so why don't we let him work it out. It's not he doesn't know how to do it and it's been discussed here multiple times. This happens every year, around the same time. And the current mods are doing fine.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Mark, I just put it out there so Patrick and other's jobs are easier running the broad. Then overall concern about how the spam issues and dirty pictures look about Polk Audio.
