The whole point is that no one else is using it. I seriously doubt the script kiddies who write bots will ever even visit Revsoft and look at the registration field. Of course, if we were to do something silly like release it at phpBB mod database it'd be coded around in a heartbeat. So far only one bot has gotten past it, and after looking closely, I'm 99% sure it was a human registration.kv83 wrote:However, your mod won't last long. Bot-makers will adapt if, it fails to often on your site... so that is a ticking-bomb aswell. Also there a lot "human-bots".

133.55 Maxcoins on anything related to sex / women / porn.Lets start a pool, What do you think the next bot is gonna try pedaling? Porn, pills, credit sh!t, or all of the above.
What, like the captcha the bots are already bypassing?comeon, just made a random picture of a password and have them enter it in order to register. this is getting crazy.

Yeah, and then there are people like me, who untill I signed up on this site had not successfully compiled a project. Not from lack of trying of course, but there's no way I would have passed a test or anything. For the record, I can only thing of three ways to return from a called function. (jr, jp, and ret)
No, there are too many people who look to the site for genuine advice. The password idea is fine by me. As a plus, it pretty much prevents someone from using an anonymizer to register with the site. (I've tried at school when the site was blocked for 5 minutes. Fortunately, our admin cut me a break and let it loose.)
Short answer for skimmers: Password good, z80 skills test bad.

PS: Of course, they could just get a random simple math question. Even a bot would have a hard time doing simple math by reading the page...
