I don't have the Full Admin rights required to implement an 'anti-spam/sign up' solution; which I had been continually suggesting and wanting to implement since 2010.

[i:1n468rcg]"The other problem is that the visual task of recognising distorted words will eventually be completely possible to automate. So a Captcha will block simple

I vote Homeless to have the full admin rights so as to implement ways to prevent spam and allow newbie sign ups. We are getting overwhelmed by spammers. Time to fix this problem now.

It cannot be done through the admin section. Files need to be uploaded to the server and so on. Who has access to the server?

Well if the current admins don't have it, maybe Todd or Paul do.

It needs to be implemented through [b:23vy257q]both[/b:23vy257q] the 'FTP (server)' and 'Full Admin' section.
Access to both sections needs to be granted, and the website (including database) should be backed up beforehand.

Unfortunately I have no idea who has the appropriate access rights.

I posted the below to all the admins and mods back in early January. Nobody seemed to give a shit. I paid for hosting for the site up until the 13 Jan. I am quite surprised it is still up and running actually.

I have PM'ed the server access details to Karl, so if anyone wants to jump on the back of this runaway train and steer it, I suggest they PM Karl about it.

[quote="Todd":242xx8ke]G'day all,

Sorry about my supposed tone, but I have to be blunt (and cook dinner). In case anyone asks, I still ride, off and on around once a week. I'm not really progressing, but I still have fun.

Now......this forum ownership was handed over from myself early last year. I paid money out of my pocket for the extra year as an incentive to make sure this place keeps going, but that seems to have gone to waste. I may have admin rights, but I am happy to give them away to make sure it stays alive. Somebody needs to take the reins of this out of control machine. Please, somebody pour their heart and soul into it like Dave and I did, but be prepared that you may get a lot of promises for help, but none actually forthcoming. Please dont let this place die. This is a good community, and I would hate to see a lot of people get out of touch.

Any thoughts?[/quote:242xx8ke]
