Hello, I am learning programming and just discovered this website. But I am curious, how does it protect its users from spammers (people who post illegal or annoying things) without a reCaptcha? I thought clicking this blue box is required to prove that you are not a robot, can you please share any javascript that you use for this purpose? Thank you and have a nice day, Brian

>>1 reCaptcha is an evil scam run by Google to mine coins and steal information about you, don't use it.

Hi Brian, I hope this message finds you well. Trying is learning! Post some kiddie porn here and see what happens to your post. Best regards, Shivam
Hi Brian, warm greetings, you should suggest this to the administrator, it's a very good idea.
All the best, fart man

Hi Brian!
Welcome to /prog/. Unfortunately, this board has little protection, so spammers can pretty much do whatever they want. The server side software has a crude rate-limiter, which prevents the same IP address from posting multiple times within a few seconds of each other. But it's easily defeated, and the community has suffered as a result -- you can probably tell.
As someone learning programming, you could probably write a better board yourself! *grins*
Anyway, thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again!
My guess is that admin got paid for PR Stallman as part of some political campaign. And since the money ran out, there was no reason force that thread further.

Captcha is for making money from people wanting to post. G**gle pays like ½ a cent for every ten recaptchas your users solve.

That reminds me of when I had a 20-strong botnet at the university. I would write projects for other students for cash or booze, and I would hide a backdoor in the executables (because most of them were too lazy an/or retarded to compile the code themselves and wanted an exe too). I used that to spam the old <marquee>/prague/</marque> with randomly generated sentences. Those were the times.
