Who knows something about this?

Post by Terwawssdrt »

Hey there! I have poor credit. I am a lousy spammer and spend my days naked in a puddle of warm rice pudding, posting to forums, I should be in a gorilla cage or a lobster tank

Here's the deal, WORM.

You can't put a captcha into phpbb for people who register. Spammers bypass it and input shit directly into the registration form. Now, I know you are thinking, "WTF?" Me, too.

You CAN put an effective captcha in for guest posts, though. That works great. I wish I had a cool word to input, but I feel the current one lets people enter it quickly using two fingers. And I've got something else you can enter quickly with two fingers.

I could make it so that I had to approve registrations, but I barely have time to post on here, much less approve people. We get one good new user a month -- it was Lupus Yonderboy previously -- and I'd hate for that new user to not be able to post immediately. I'd hate it with my whole mouth.

Besides, my secret co-sysop does a wonderful job killing the links and it fills me with joy when he does it. He's awesome.

I mean a randomized thing. It's all plugins, and it's all PHP. Honestly, give me a week to do nothing crazy and prove I'm mentally stable. Then give me shell access, and I'll find a random guest post and random register catchpa thing and install it.

Yeah, I wouldn't give a single soul on the planet ftp access to one of these sites. That being said, I love gambling and would like to know more about Bookie Bob's services.
