I’d be interested to see what might be out there to stop the spam registrations.BenM wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 4:04 pm All good folks. Sorry I wasn't aware there was an issue before now, I haven't been spending much time here for various reasons. The feedback is useful to help me understand whether it's fixed or not.
I don't have any issue with opening up registrations, as mentioned above the hosting side is not anywhere near hitting any limits, apart from disk space which I can easily enough increase for a couple of dollars a month if it comes down to it. It's more a question of whether the spammy registrations will cause unmanageable amounts of extra work. If I get a minute I will see if there are any extensions around that might help reduce the number of dodgy signups we get.
Biggest issue I continue to run into is that there are actual real people that go through the process and that makes the anti-bot measures far less effective.
