Tried that but nothing works.
This started happening when I noticed that guests were all of a sudden able to register and post without admin approval. I think I deleted GUESTS as a group and recreated it and set permissions accordingly. They are currently set to view the forums but not post. I wish i didn't have to do that but the fucking bots have been unbelievable. I have almost NO LINKS to this site out there, except for the one in my sig file on this site, and I get 25 registrations requests every fucking day from bots.
I HONESTLY believe that spammers should not only be executed, but drawn and quartered, with no hanging in advance (it reduces the pain of the drawing and quartering). I am vehemently anti-death penalty (I'ma liberal), but would gladly make an exception for spammers.
