I run www.chicitysports.com/forum

We get a lot of bots signing up and spamming threads for High Quality Sports Jerseys for sale. I have a registration question set in place yet they get around it. Any help

Most likely human spammers. Who register bypassing all the restrictions and then turn over the accounts to the bots. If I were you I would consider to try to stop them from posting. There are several good tips and mods here on the subject. I suggest that you do a little search and read through them.

Thank for the feedback, what options do you guys use?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
