    Spam bots everywhere.
    I used to get them a lot too on my website.
    Just had to set the captcha requirements in a flexible but effective way.

    Soooo, we should ask kurozael to add a Captcha that is not annoying?

    Edit: I don't really think these are spambots. Just somebody with a dynamic IP.

    There's ridiculous amounts of spam now. Cloud Sixteen needs better verification methods.
