Those filthy spammers ruin it for everyone.Sad

If you are using MyBB there is a way to stop a lot of the spammers. In the dashboard, in the configuration section there there is a section called 'User Registration and Profile Options.

Under that there is an option to display a hidden captcha. What this does is it displays this capthca during registration. Regular users won't see it but spam bots will. If anything is entered in this field, which there won't be when a human registers, the registration is treated as spam and disallowed.

I use it on mine and I haven't had any spam. Knock on woodSmile

Hope this helps.

Kelly
