    Dear mates,
    I've just deleted all the spam posts everywhere. Sorry for this inconvenience. We put a captcha to block automatic spammers, but seems human spammers are quite stubborn. Would you suggest a way to deal with this problem of stubborn human spammers?

    We're already blocking them, obviously, but changing IP is that easy...

    Maybe only customers that have an UDOO can post. All others can only read...

    Yes, and how would you track only people that have a UDOO? You know it's not possible, right?

    hi new to the forum after picking up a neo to keep me occupied while recovering from illness and hope you don't mind me making a suggestion, depending if your CMS allows an option to discourage spammers we've used in the past is using verified email as login profiles still show username with emails hidden.
