SPAM?

For some reason every time I post, the system suspects I'm spamming and prompts me to type the CAPTCHA or whatever message. I know my messages may be annoying but hey, every time, jeez! In all seriousness though, what's up with that?

I'm not sure.

It is supposed to analyse your text and make a decision about whether to display a captcha. I know it will usually prompt you if you try to post links. It prompts me too. But every time, that doesn't sound good.

Is anyone else having the same experience?

Lately, I haven't been hit with the spam message or CAPTCHA. Thanks for working on this! I appreciate it. One of the great things about AudioMulch is how helpful and friendly people are on the forum. You guys rock!

Glad to hear it's been working better for you. Currently the CAPTCHA plugin we're using makes most of the decisions so it's a little out of my control. I'm still looking into other options.

There is still spam getting through, and I would hate for people's real posts to be rejected, so we may move to another system -- perhaps no link posting for first-time posters or something. Another option would be to appoint some moderators.
