Yeah, at that point it becomes a stupid-people filter.


which could be nice too but rather unecessary ;P

Sorry for the random off-topic question but I just wanted to ask what TIA stood for real quick and get it over with.

Google search says that is all.
I think next time you have a question for a member and you think it'll go off topic, try PMing them instead.

Also, for me personally, a simple riddle would be nice if I were joining.
But that's just me so idk what 10 year olds think.

RE: Added security on Registration. - Garamonde - 04-17-2011

Sorry about that... anyway:

How many letters are there in "Resource"?

Are you a human? Yes or no.

You might be a bunny and yet you're here.

But that's the thing - 10 year olds shouldn't even be here.

As mean as it sounds, if making a criteria question harder or requiring more thought means that the newer signups would be older; I have absolutely no problems with that.

Hello there,
these simple questions lead to best security and i am voting to have such questions to overcome spam and security too , there will never be any complication , the registration will go smooth .

(RTB's edit: Wow. These spambots are getting stupider and stupider.)

Uhhhh what? We all agree with having this... and there's no "voting", so this'll be here whether someone likes it or not, I guess.

It's not open to vote, they are going to happen/being implanted.

Simple questions or even some classic riddles might be the best way to go. After all you got to be at least 13 years old and in my experience idiots are subject of intense trolling here so if someone don't got the patience to solve something this simple they'd better keep away from any forums or social network until they do

RE: Added security on Registration. - Rosencrantz - 04-23-2011

HERE'S A THOUGHT:

why not base the questions on the website rules?

Like
"I will not post in topics that have not been posted in for more than a month."
"I acknowledge that I am over the age of 13."
"I acknowledge that I need to make 20 posts to make requests."


Then make it so that they have to copy/paste the phrases into text boxes or rephrase them and make them yes/no questions.
