Spambot catcher

Post by PKPenguin321 » #425321

This might be a stupid idea but what if there was a board you didn't need a linked byond account to post to, and if you post there then the site would check your total posts and instantly permaban you if you had less than, say, 10? Bots seem to just post to whatever board they possibly can and almost invariably have very very very few total posts so I don't see why this wouldn't work. It could even hide/delete any other posts you've made on the forums automatically if you get caught in it, which would allow this system to also remove spam posts made by the bot in FNR automatically. Just make sure you clearly place a label on the board saying not to post in it if you're a human.

So you’re saying I should make an alt account and click that link?
