Did a search, nothing.

Ok, so I want to protect my forum better from bots, but is there no image verification to be compulsory for registration? And I am talking about an image with a series of numbers and letters in which you identify. I see it on alot of sites when I sign up for them, so is this available to me on my forum?

We have already this system for guest and it hasen't prevented spamming, since the bots have evolved and can now pass through this system. On one of my test boards, I have a section where guests can post and I regularly have to delete topics because it's getting polluted by spams...

I assumed that would happen if I let my guests post Katt. I've seen it on many forums where guests can post, and it's just spam, spam, spam. That's why I think the image verification on registration would atleast filter some bots out. Assuming that you don't let guests post. Plus, when registering there is more to be filled out, and image verification could be added protection.
