Hi Kevin, Thanks for answering quickly. What a pleasant surprise.
Now what I mean with when the spambots have learned to deal with that is that after a while I am pretty certain spambots will become aware of how they are prevented from registering and start delaying.
From what I was able to see there is no where the time the bot took. I have set it currently to post to forum, which is great as it publishes the spamming email addresses, and exposes them to email harvesters LOL. I thought I saw something about a log file but I was unable to find where that goes. It certainly is not in the settings of the spambot blocker. And ideally the log file would have all the information so that I can run an analysis after the fact.
