Default RC Tech Spam

The porno spam has gotten out of control lately. I'm a member of another internet forum that was getting spammed heavily so the owner decided to make it a pay-to-post site. New users had to pay a one time $25 fee and older members were exempted. The spam stopped immediately. I'm not saying that's what rctech should do...Just throwing out a suggestion...

Ok guys, I took some steps to help prevent some of the spam bots get through the registration process. I made the image verification process a lot harder. Well run with this for awhile and see how it is working for us.

would be sweet if there was an adult section, playboy models with rc cars what could be better, get the older people in to the hobby. Not any worst then what some younger kids are seeing in some of those rc magines.
