Pruned all spam bot users

Post by Sadi-Carnot »

Today I added a "Q&A Captcha" to stop all the spam bots.

I also pruned all users who have posted 4 or less times.

If "real" users have issues, e.g. with the Q&A question, please post or message me.

Once I know that you are a real forum user, then I will reset your permissions, after your first post (which I will have to approve) to no approval needed, to make further posts.
All the best, Libb.

Yes, fighting spam bots is a pain in the ass, but a learn-as-I-go process.
All the best, Libb.
