Hello CodeCallers,
We know CodeCall sometimes attacked by spammers. Do you agree CodeCall integrated with captcha?

I agree.

Depends on wether you want it for every post you make, or for the registering process?

I personally don't like captcha because its often very difficult to read due to odd colors. It's like looking at those cards that are used to find out if you're color blind. There are others which don't use all those colors, just black letters on white background. Those are very easy to read so only non-humans would have problems with them.

But even using captcha won't eliminate the spam problem because spam is sometimes posted by humans, not bots.

Registering process at CodeCall have already use re-captcha. So, for every post I mean, with just simple captcha, like "2+2 = ..." or something like that. This is only an idea.

But, the simplest way I think is do the best for CodeCall with quality post and don't spam. :)

We already have several filters that block most of the spam, and moderators kill a lot of it quickly.
