A guest doesn't post a spam bot!
A spam bit is something that posts either as a guest or by registering. Enabling CAPTCHA in admin/configure stops bots completely. But not human spammers. |

You could use the moderation portal so new members posts do not show until you release them. | ||

I have had a look for that CAPTCHA in configure there seems not to be 1 Unless there is another word which relates to this sauce. |

Image verification. | ||

When members first join they have to enter a code before getting access to the forum. Enable Visual Confirmation is set "Yes". |

So spambots are already unable to register.
On this forum we still get several spammers a week as a lot of spammers are human. |

Is there anyway at all to stop the spammers apart from banning them. Also i did notice in the rank field that there is a rank with guests as well. |

If you could just "STOP" spammers we would be doing it. | ||

Ok no problem admin thanks for the help. |
