I think that we need a captcha system to stop SPAM flood in forum.

Please, you should consider using a captcha plugin.

Nope, I have been removing it myself, maybe someone else also helped but yesterday I erased about 15 or 20 spam threads by myself, and two days ago it was more of the same.

I was just about to open a new thread exactly like this one, asking for a captcha but then I began reading the forum normal threads and I forgot about that.

So, I agree that something should be done about that, we can of course just add their most common words to the black list of banned words, as we did with vi-agra and other typical spamm words, but there would always be newer ones.

I suggest, if possible, implementing a captcha for non registered users, and also a captcha in the registering form.

I remember previous spam attacks, if it reachs a level where it overwhelms the guys who volunteer, then captcha sounds like a necessity.
