    Yeah, this will hopefully be fixed in ZetaBoards though.

    I doubt it, It would probably be just as easy for spambots to join.

    They could include a few new things to prevent spambots, but to be honest... the only real way of totally stopping them is by forcing admins to validate each new registration.

    They don't. They make 0 to 1 posts and never return. Though it would not be entirely unreasonable to encounter a spambot which is scripted to reply to a randomly selected thread.

    Okay, I'm finding that people like to post to those stupid Spam-Bot threads, so what I'm saying is to not post to them at all, and just leave them to the Mods or the Admins to take care of.

    ~Thank you.

    I agree, I myself have made a few witty remarks toward a spam-bot, but I stopped a while-back, the posts are only going to get deleted anyway.
