We already do, and that again doesn't do anything, so your quip - once again - is incorrect, as we do that already. In fact - - it doesn't stop the bots.. We also have a "NoSpam! Verification Question"... Don't believe me? Log out - and start the REGISTRATION process...

For further clarification - see my first reply to your quip: "..Although I am no web guy.."

To quote someone I know - please refer your question to the BOD. That choice is/was their choice. I support it. If you do not - let them know.

Thank you,
