Over the last few weeks I've had a large influx of Bots registering. As much as 100+ over 7 hours.
I have Human Verification enabled & have alternated between reCaptcha, random question and image verification.
I logged out and attempted to register a new account to see what is being shown to the person/Bot registering. The Human Verification option was not displayed. I went over all my settings again & again.
I noticed that I was logged into my facebook account with the same browser, so I logged out from facebook and the human verification option appeared.
So if the bot has active facebook cookies, vBulletin will not display the human verification option on the registration form.
