Logan Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 In 3.0 would it be worth incorporating "reCaptcha"? I've heard good things about it, never used it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark H. Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Remove the old ones? Nothing in the announcement mentioned removing the old ones. But I sure will if that improves my chances to catch a spammer.... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy T Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 and did you get this one after you aplied the fix? Before. It was just interesting few minutes after the patch was announced I get my first bot sign up in over a year. I did go ahead and patch the system up.

Mark H. Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I removed the old backgrounds and fonts. The new backgrounds were obviously different than the old ones, but the new fonts all looked very much like the old ones. Are the new fonts supposed to look markedly different?

Jυra Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 something wrong? A lot of IPS staff are getting yelled at and ripped into. Maybe. Can someone confirm that adding a q and a thing to registration stops them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
