Bot Thingy
I have this weird thing signing up on my site I don't know whether it's human or not. I mean, I keep sending messages and everything, but it never replies back. I mean if it was someone who was serious about joining the site, they'd respond I am guessing. Also, if it was human, I guess it would like go around the site, but it doesn't. I keep deleting account after 48 hrs, but I feel like its the same dude or bot. So, does anyone know any solution for this. I am sick of whoever signs up to our site and never responds. Are there any code to prevent bots, if it is indeed a bot, from signing up every time.

Please change the title of your topic, that is related to your question/issue, so that other users will be able to find their question/issue using the search engine. |
Is this member/bot causing any problems? If it is not breaking any rules/guidelines, I do not see why you want to delete the account.

Re: Bot Thingy
I don't know for sure if it's a bot or human. There is a message on register page that says...blah, blah, blah, I mean if it was human it would be able to read the message unless someone signs up without following rules on purpose.
Re: Bot Thingy
First off, I'd recommend for you to IP ban him/her/it.
Another thing, is your confirmation code activation on? That's one of the reasons why bot can get in if there isn't any confirmation code activation on.

Re: Bot Thingy
Thank you so much for the help. I can't ban his IP because he hasn't posted anything. But I will activate the code then. Thank you! Solved.
