Hi all,

Here is my issue:

My website (www.gunclan.com) ran great for a year or so but has since being clogged full of daily SPAM.

The burden of trying to figure out real 'New Members' vs. Spammers takes what little time I have to admin the site leaving me little time to spark conversations and discussions. I am getting over 100 new member spammers a day.

I have tried all of the Anti-Spam measures I had found... reCAPTCHA, human verification, Wait for moderation, etc.

So, my question, Does the newest version make it easier to eliminate spam?

Of course, any other suggestions are welcome too.

Thanks.

Maybe use an image link which should stop it dead on registering pretty much mate https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=265845

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