Do you moderate new users? Do you require them to verify their email prior to posting? Do you use the Question & Answer verification when users register? And do you have several questions/answers set?

My vB5 site used to get spammers too but when I used Recaptcha v2 they're gone (at least in my case).👍 1Comment

You need to set up the options under Settings -> Spam Management and Settings -> Human Verification.
To validate emails you would go to Settings -> Options -> Registration Options. The option is there.
I recommend Recaptcha2 over Question and Answer at this time. Easier maintenance and more difficult to code bots for.Translations provided by Google.

by eboggs_jkvlI understand the spam controls you mentioned that reside in VB5 but there is a spam control that times the making of an ID. The bots can make an ID in 2-3 seconds Humans, well, they are a tad slower....
