ive noticed a few spammers getting in here and posting explicit content and was wondering if you could put a captcha (where you type in a word thats in an image) function on members who are newly registering to help filter out garbage like these people/spammers are posting?

A new captcha system has been put into place today. If that doesn't stop the spam, we have another one available that's considerably more aggressive. One way or another, it'll be stopped.

No problem Crystal.  No one blames you, and you do get them removed fairly quickly  Wink..it's just one of those things that comes along administrating a forum.  I wish there was someway to discourage these idiots from doing this.  It seems like since there are minors on this site they could slap them with something related to showing pornographic material to minors.

I have never seen it and I am on the forum all of the time.  So I think you are doing a great job at getting rid of it...
