Can we get a Captcha at account creation? The spam bots are getting more frequent, and more inappropriate. Saw a couple of spam forum posts that i really don't think kids should be seeing.

I counted 13 of "Lose Weight!" and "A Much Better Living Style!" I hate those sooooo much.

Yes, we have been countering

Yes, we have been countering the spambot problem for a little while now. H4X has made the account creation captcha harder but the bots you see today were actually ones that were made some time ago.
