----- code section ------
$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
'isbot_time1' => TYPE_UINT
));

$ipaddress = IPADDRESS;

if ($vbulletin->GPC['username'] && $vbulletin->GPC['email'])
{
$isbot_time1 = $vbulletin->GPC['isbot_time1'];
$isbot_time2 = TIMENOW;
$isbot_timediff = intval($isbot_time2 - $isbot_time1);


if ($isbot_timediff <= 15) // difference in seconds
{
$isbot_username = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['username']);
$isbot_email = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['email']);

$isbot_subject = $vbphrase['isbot_user_blocked_from_registering'];
$isbot_message = $vbphrase['isbot_the_following_name_email_blocked']
. '
User Name : ' . $isbot_username . '
Email : ' . $isbot_email . '
Time to fill registration form : ' . $isbot_timediff . ' ' . $vbphrase['isbot_seconds_transpired'] . '
IP Address : ' . $ipaddress . ' ';

vbmail($vbulletin->options['webmasteremail'], $isbot_subject, $isbot_message, true);

if ($vbulletin->options['enablebanning'] == 1 AND $vbulletin->options['banip'] = trim($vbulletin->options['banip']))
{
$banned = $ipaddress . " " . $vbulletin->options['banip'];
$db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "setting SET value = '" . $banned . "' where varname='banip'");
require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions.php');
build_options();
}

eval(standard_error(fetch_error('noregister')));
}
}
-------------

Copy the above code and enter it in AdminCP/Plug-in Manager/Is Bot. Just click on Edit next to the "register_addmember_process", highlight the Plugin PHP code and paste the above code in there. Click on "Save and Reload" and you are done.

To verify it's working, next time you receive an email from this plugin, compare the IP shown in the email you got, with the IPs in your banned IPs list. The newly banned IP is entered in the beginning of the list, so it should be easy to spot.

My Christmas gift to you guys.

Confirmed working with 3.8.7
