reCAPTCHA

[iago]

In an effort to get rid of spam accounts signing up, and therefore flooding our emails with "New member" emails, Blaze added a SMF plugin for reCAPTCHA. I personally like reCAPTCHA, it's the only CAPTCHA that I really like.

If you know anybody who's having issues signing up, let me know and I'll see what I can do. I had to hardcode reCAPTCHA's ip in my firewall to make it work, which may not be the best way to do it.

[iago]

I disabled the "require administrator approval" setting, since we haven't had any spambots sign up since we changed to reCAPTCHA. But a note to moderators -- be sure to keep an eye out.

x86labs is serious business.

[iago]

We were getting 10+ registrations/day from spammers. x86 itself may not be serious business, as you've implied, but you can't just run a forum and leave it alone anymore. The assholes will make a mess.

When I read this I felt that there was underlying meaning to it.. possible aimed at trust.

But then again, I am stoned so eh..

Heh, nope. I was legitimately referring to spambots.

Spambots are a threat. They are potentially a replacement for trolls.
It's like when machines become self aware.

[Sidoh]

or when trolls become aware that what they do requires no cleverness and can be completely automated.

real math requires more creativeness than it does calculation.

calculators don't prove theorems.

$ math -run "Prove Sylow's first theorem."
LOLWHUT?

[Sidoh]

Code: [Select]

#!/usr/bin/perl
#trollin is srsbsns.
use strict;
my @responses = ( "lol im a troll", "crymoar plz", "u tool" );
print @responses[int(rand(scalar(@responses)))]."\n";

as you can see, this script is a much better troll than you.  it has the potential to learn new material.

[Warrior]

its cute to see how desperate you've become
this is embarrassing

No, this thread is about pie now. Discuss.
