Hello,

I have a vbulletin forum at http://www.learnmagictricks.org/forum

Since I do not have a captcha I am getting a lot of spam, does anyone have a method that I could do to prevent some of this spam from occurring?

Thanks.

Use captcha. Also creating a "new members" usergroup w/o PM and SIG privs helps as well. You will also have to create a promotion that promotes the new members to regular members after 50 posts or any other parameter.
