After 2 years of using Wowbb I was beginning to get tired of having to manually delete anyone that hadn't posted to prevent spammers from joining. If I were to guesstimate how many spammers joined in the last two years, I would probably figure it at about 5,000 or more. It's not that I wouldn't enjoy having 5,000 people on the forum, but spammers are most certainly unwanted.
The people at UltraBB have been quite wonderful, and one of the features I most anticipated enjoying was the CAPTCHA feature for new members that register. That is, until they make robots sophisticated enough to be able to overcome that also. The upgrade was painless, and there's just a few things I'm trying out as I learn to tune the board.
As I learn and as time passes, there will always be something new, always something to experiment with and see how it goes.
Enjoy.
