Today was a big day for the board, we have officially hit the world stage.
I had to delete 41 registrations today and a number of spam messages on the board from foreign IP addresses.
So I implemented a very simple fix and within moments the registrations stopped.
How did I do this incredible feat of engineering you ask?
I made two security questions, answer one wrong and the other one comes up.
1. What province starts and ends with the letter "A" ?
2. What province starts and ends with the letter "O" ?
I had to think a little bit ouside of the box and come up with questions that typical Canadians could answer but most foreigners could not.
Now lets just hope they do not discover google :lol:
It stopped the bots or spammers cold in their tracks.
PLEASE DO NOT POST THE ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS
