Stop these 'Captcha' things please!

OK, I know it was me who made the big fuss about the spammers who were spoiling this forum a few weeks ago.  And appreciate that the new 'captcha' code thingamy you've introduiced after every attempt to post anythingf (regardless whether one has successfully logged in or not) must be intended to weed out the spammers.

BUT, it is EXTREMELY annoying to have to run the gauntlet of typing vague and ambiguous characters into a 'box' before knowing whether one has wasted one's ime completely or not.

Please look at other forums. There are plenty that seem to work successfully 99.9% of the time without resoprting to this ridiculous palaver.

Thank and good night.  I'll be back when you've sorted this. (I can;t be arsed going back to check for typos - I'm sure there are several, if not many - my apologies to anyone who find this irritating - I know how you feel!)

  • Hi

    We are still having problems with the way the DRUPAL (community) software interprets the SPAM identified by the SPAM service MOLLOM. It should render it unpublished but it does not. The first bug fix has not worked so we are talking to the developers to get that addessed as a matter of urgency. This is very frustrating for us all. Please be reassured we are working on this as a priority.

    The SPAM sofware should identify and trigger blocking to all posts not in english as well as key words. 

    I'll keep you updated.. 

    Regards
