I have the newest version of phpbb installed on my message boards, but the spam just keeps coming. I've looked and looked for a simple solution to this and it seems that the more I look, the more confused that I get.

Can anyone please tell me how to make it stop so that I can do more productive things than delete it all day. This is really slowing me down and I don't know what to do about these stupid bots. I've tried adding q&a and the 3D word verification but to no avail.

I'm considering deleting them, but I really don't want to do that if I can avoid it. Thanks for any advice that you have on this extremely frustrating situation. :confused:
