Spambots

I was directed to a reply made at the "steam >> Nvil >> discussions" where it was mentioned that this forum is having issues with spammers.(Yes I noticed)

Please note. The "Captcha" being used for varification is broken/easily bypassed by spambots.

Please read information here:-

I think a simple technical question regarding 3D, asked during registration process would do just fine.

I installed SMF on my machine to check for anti-spam measures and there are plenty. A couple of questions would do just fine, considering that captcha is useless. Unless you use the one from Google which requires you to mark different things on NxN square (like tiles with cars or roads) which I believe is somewhat difficult to pass by spambots.

I vote for "rubberDuck as new Admin" 

I'm allergic to anything related to webpage administration and webdesign.

I think you are just being bashful. With you installing SMF and checking settings, I think maybe move the Nvil database over there. What`s your bandwidth like

Too narrow.
By the way, HTTPS works out of the box in vanilla SMF installation.
