Re: Captcha on signup
Though captcha usually drives people crazy, one time, at signup wouldn't be too bad. The problem is, most spammers are human, not bot, so it would only stop spambots.

As websites grow larger, spambots usually become more of a problem. I agree, though. ^^
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline
