Bug Tracker Spam
« on: October 29, 2008, 12:22:41 pm »
Hey guys, I know I'm not around much any more. School, and other intrests have taken over for the time being ::), but I do check the forums and bug tracker on occasion. Reacently it seems every time I look at mantis I end up deleting 2 or 3 random spam reports. I think we need some sort of captcha or spam filter on anonymous reports.

I'm not familiar enough with Mantis to know, is there an option for it? Does it have plugins like SMF?
We could go back to requiring registration, but, I feel that what little it gets used by the 'average' person would make it that much less used.

Just saw 3 more today. Made them private instead of deleting so Meg can take a look and see if there is a way to block them.
