    Lightbulb KeyCAPTCHA

    SB-I may want to implement https://www.keycaptcha.com/ to further prevent spambots.
    Thanks

    No, it is not. What SB-I is currently using is ReCaptcha.
    Thanks

    I think it's a good idea, but some people might think this is too much trouble and stop coming here :/
    Thanks

    Most bots don't get past our reCaptcha plus security questions. The spam you usually see comes from real people registering and posting, which is a recurring problem in forums, and something we sadly can't do much to prevent.

    yep that's what I thought, so there is no use really for the KeyCAPTCHA
    Thanks

    That is wrong way to conclude. Bots are able to bypass ReCaptcha. KeyCAPTCHA in accordance with those security questions and/or ReCaptcha will strengthen SB-I against spammers and vandals.

    spam is not a big issü here. the current captcha + the qüstions seem to be doing a good job. and as anon said:

    KeyCAPTCHA might be able to prevent those "small" cases where the spambots are able to bypass the security restrictions put in place. Either way, I trust you all are doing a good job. This is merely a suggestion that could lessen your work.
    Thanks

    it's sweet, but empty forum is empty, though. It's not like there's much else for them to do here

    By the way, I nuked those guys in the sport section. Looks like their strategy is to make relatively on-topic posts, then edit them a few days later to add spam links when they're much less likely to be spotted.

    Thanks
