This new Forum seems to be getting more spam than fan postings!!! :-(
Get lost spammers!
Come on Charlie fans . . . I was hoping for more Charlie-chat than this.
I'm sure a lot of effort has been put into building this site and offering this Forum, so come on get posting (please). :-)

Will adding sums to actual postings help

We seem to be being overun again.

Will adding the sums to actual postings (rather than just logins)help?

Is it possible?

Spam blocker installed

We have installed a simple spam blocker for the forum. When posting you will now see a field at the bottom of the post named:CAPTCHA. It will ask you a simple math question. This question is for testing whether you are a human visitor and to prevent automated spam submissions. This should clear up the spam issue we have been having but we will keep an eye on it just in case.

I totally agree that we

I totally agree that we should try and restrict spam.

I for one would have no objection to having to put in a security random word whenever I post if it will stop spam.

Is there anyway the moderators can remove known spammers and their post automatically?
