I got attacked by spam bots on my forum page. I delletd their accoounts and banned their IP. I also blocked @mail.rc email adresses. I was just wondering if it is possible to block them all.

Total Posts: 2486 | Well, people's use of annoying CAPTCHA is the prime reason we get tons of spam email with embedded images. But yeah, some kind of verification would surely help reduce spam.

Total Posts: 542 | i think they are just using us, and will over throw us in a triumphant battle of epic proportions. It is all due to their ability to secure the obscure. I say kill them quick before the realize that we know...
