ModeratorI have mod powers but I don't see a way that I can add a captcha or ban a user.

ParticipantI like my way better: Edit the post to make it sound ridiculous, humiliate the spammer, make their product sound like a joke that's going to make your peepee fall off, and leave it there for all to see and poke fun of… Of course, for legal purposes, I can neither confirm nor deny that I have ever done that to any of the posted spam messages… I'm thinking that there are simply a lot of people lately spamming what they know to be a crappy product already. :)

ModeratorUnfortunately, most of the spam comes from bots, not people.

ParticipantMaybe a captcha requirement for registration wouldn't be so bad… It doesn't even have to be a smart or real captcha. It could be something like: "Type in the 7th word in this sentence right here" And of course "7th" can be like ( randomNumber mod SentenceLength ) and that alone would mean only a 1 in SentenceLength chance that a bot would successfully create an account. SentenceLength can then be like… a loooong message… Heck, like this post right here! :p

ParticipantIt should be a picture captcha where you have to draw a man boob

KeymasterSorry guys :) Thanks for braving the storm.
I just set up the Human Test bbpress plugin.
Just tested it and it seems to work. This is good since half the plugins for bbPress don't work properly (like attaching a file to the post).
A Captcha will be like a Smoke Pot and it will keep us safe (from having to All-Out the robots).

ModeratorLYS – is there a way to see who is adding spam tags and warn them?
August 4, 2012 at 5:39 pm #44518Lord Yuan Shu
KeymasterUnfortunately, I doubt it has that capability. That is annoying, for sure. I'll look into it and see if I can figure something out.
In the ~6 days that this has been up, it looks like we have 11 people that have been warned / banned…good work everyone.
That said, something weird is going on with the moderation log…

Why the hell are these other spammers able to edit other spammers posts? (marking them as "deleted" instead of spam).

ModeratorCan I warn a user without them posting? I see some usernames that look like they might be adding the tags.
