I have restarted the fight against spammers here at xith.org. I have upgraded to SMF 1.1.8 and was hoping, that I am now able to install the registration captcha again. But it didn't work. I hope, I can get it to work now.

I have deleted about 450 spammer accounts. I hope, I didn't delete a regular user account. But I don't think so. If I deleted your account, please re-register and take my apologize.

I managed to install the anti-spambot captcha modification. I hope, this will bring an end to the spambot registration and spam threads (finally).

I have verified, if normal registrations are still possible and they are.

We have been getting many new users lately who don't seem to know the finer points of our rules.

It is very difficult task to identify who is spammer and regular user.
