Perhaps you do not have GDLib installed?

There's a lot of plugins that have spambot countermeasures. Some of them are during the registration process (NoSpam!) and some are after the registration process.

I'm developing a plugin that scans the first X (usually 1 or 2) posts of a user and look for "clues" that might make the user a spambot, and then it takes certain actions.

What is this and how do I get it ?

Send an email to your host requesting the installation of GDLib.

Some of them keep it off for security reasons

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