I am leaving these up, have deleted a couple over the past day.. got 3 more now. Not sure what kind of bot protection you can implement with it, but would be nice if you could do something. ^^;

If you have the time that is.

What kind of junk are they uploading?

It is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem.

Yeah, I've deleted a bunch of them. It's not a huge deal right now. I changed some of the requirements for a valid file upload, and ever since then we've been getting these. I may change the requirements back.

Do you have to be a signed up member of the site/forums to submit files? Might be something to add if not. Still would like to see emails being entered in and displayed so if the file does not meet requirements I can let the person know. If it isn't too much trouble.

Starting to see more of this happening, have been just deleting them, but really something should be put in to keep it from happening in the first place. Wish I knew what would be a good way to keep bots from spamming it tho.

Put a "Click here if you are human" check box.
