Title: Spam, spam and more spam.
Post by: Xi_34 on October 26, 2012, 05:37:06 am

Everyone has probably noticed the enormous amount of spam happening in the forums. It makes it kind of hard to find legitimate topics in all this mess. I'm sure it would be of use to everyone if it could be sorted out.

Thanks.

Thanks about your concern, the problem is more about registration than login, but, I think we have found a kind of solution

Hi, i guess the captcha is usefull with registration, but not moderation... Still, it's a good point to try to eradicate spam on the forum...

This tends to happen when using free/open source forum software.  Maybe Arturia should consider using Invision Power Board or some other brand that has active spam detection and an active developer community.  but PLEASE DONT use vBulletin.
