I have contacted Admin several times about installing reCAPTCHA, but nothing has been done... :neutral:

Maybe they should just take over and then maybe the admin will listen
I will NOT PM you an address.
I will assist you in getting said address.

"They", meaning moderators? Are you suggesting we commit mutiny? :lol:

Perhaps "they" meant the spammers, that the spamming gets so bad that the admin is theoretically forced to take action.

I still reiterate, if the admin is really sticking to the "5 second excuse" with CAPTCHA, at least install a blacklist-based mod which works behind the scenes and won't interrupt the signup process.

Do you think Admin would take action, even then? I doubt it...

This is what I was referring to. It is not that i want this forum to go to Hell but I think something really needs to be done and maybe the only way to get it to happen is to do nothing

Sorry, I was half asleep when I read your comment last night. I think my interpretation was far more funny. :lol:

Here's an excerpt from a message I received from Admin today concerning this issue:
admin wrote:The forum will be upgraded soon :)

Maybe it's just me, but that really sounds more like a version update than adding new features.

You might be right. We will have to wait and see, I guess...
