Changed reCAPTCHA permissions so that a logged in user who has confirmed via email address should be able to skip the CAPTCHA. We continue to tweek reCAPTCHA to combat the jibberish spam knowing that it was not meant for this purpose, it was meant for link spam. I can always ease off on the restrictions but the price we pay is more jibberish spam. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 18:23, 20 November 2007 (EST) | |||
Upped reCAPTCHA permissions so that any anon edit will trigger the Captcha. This should cut out the jibberish spam but will likely annoy our non-logged in users - Sorry everyone but jibbersish spam is really bugging us. Let me know if any unintended consequences show up.

Spam has been a growing problem for us so I have implemented a Captcha extension called [http://recaptcha.net/ reCAPTCHA] in an effort to reduce the workload on our dedicate volunteer patrollers. If you encounter any problems with it please let me know. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 14:04, 1 September 2007 (EDT) | |||
Once again we have moved, we ran out of database room on our shared hosting account and we are now running on a dedicated server on 1and1. [[User:John Stanton|John]] 15:48, 22 July 2007 (EDT) | |||
