With 3.8 I used Cyb - Advanced Registration (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=201287) and it killed all the spam accounts, I would get 1 or 2 every couple of months. Is there anything close to this for 4.0? Any help for stopping all these spam accounts? I do ban the email address when they sign up, but that list is getting large and doesn't seem to help.

I really need something lol

Hello... is this thing on?

Over 150 spam accounts now created, its really getting out of hand. I spend more time deliting account than I do reading my forum posts.... any have any suggestions? (disabling the registration isn't an option)

Have you tried adding a profile question?I've seen boards with reCaptcha AND a question like "whats 3 +7 " I thought I read that would do it -- haven't tried yet. Cyb -- hope the upgrade soon. Nice solution
