I wanted to give you guys an update. We're working on a couple of different approaches, some working well, others causing pain. LOL. I have just changed the verification back to questions, simple questions that have lots of words and no numbers. That has had good luck with some of the other boards. Second we've joined efforts with other boards to stop this spam flood and to identify them and block them. There are some other things that we may use depending on the severity of the continued attacks.
We are not alone in this, but every year as they come at us, we all band together, figure out some solutions and put a short term end to it. I appreciate your patience as we figure this out.
I specifically want to thank Bill for all of his continued efforts. If you get a free moment, pop him an IM and thank him as well. We really do appreciate everything you do here Bill.
Thanks, and don't hesitate to contact me directly if you need to, and thanks to those who already have.
Ct..
