201.216.192.49 automatic spambot protection Try viewing the source of the registration page. This is so absurdly trivial, and yet it works. I wish more things were this easy. |

That is a great idea!
No more spambots.(for now) |

In time, even this will fail...stupid hackers...
but yes, I do agree this is an ingenious idea |

Not hackers, script kittys.
And in time it will fail but there are other things one can do. |

I see what you did there.
Good work, Xk, this is a pretty sweet solution. |

Is that sum loli?
Oh wait...No. Its just a hidden "Homepage" filter on the registration page. Ingenious, but I'm sure not all spambots fill in the homepage field. |

So what? No protection catches -all- |

Unless the method catches on with a LOT of boards, it'll provide a decent amount of protection for a decent amount of time. I doubt many people who make them would bother to create a workaround purely for this board.
It does seem like a silly method to use, but... if it works, cool. |

Originally posted by Sonicandtails Actually, the one trait XK picked up on was that they do, indeed, ALWAYS fill in a homepage. I don't know how long that'll be true for, but it's why he created that. |

This seems like it will kill them off. | |||

Might be useful. |

Can we have the PHP code for this or should we figure it out from here? | |||

if($_POST["homepage"] != "") $spambot = true;
Really, shouldn't be too hard to figure out. |

32 letter pass... That might just work for a while!
(At least, untill spambots get smarter. ) |

I think it would interesting to log the information that was entered into the registeration page(name/password/homepage) along with with the User-Agent string.
Also, in the unlikely case that the spammers are stupid enough to use the same password at many sites, someone could really fuck with thier operation. |
