Bots

Post by Sajt »

This is the second time recently, who keeps putting these stupid bots on? They're really annoying.
F. A. Špork, an enlightened nobleman and a great patron of art, had a stately Baroque spa complex built on the banks of the River Labe.

It would be easy enough to add a captcha to the registration process to stop them doing it - there are a couple of phpbb mods that will do it.

I have been getting em on my guestbook now. Pitty since you realy dont want to register to dropp a line.

I logg time/ip however of all posts, so combined with a TOS prohibiting exploitation for adverts, wouldnt it work to actualy take legal actions against the people behind these deeds of terrorism..? :roll:


Edit:
Got a simple verification running thanks to a good php tutorial here: http://www.kidslovepc.com/php-tutorial/ ... cation.php
