    I added a "Security Question" (Profile) and even though it's required, when they don't enter it it allows them to register... any ideas

    For some sites I'm happy banning all of asia, the middle east, eastern europe, africa, and south america. It depends on the niche though.

    How did you add the security question? Mine works fine.

    Security question removed most of the bots.
    Now I have pissed of user(s) wanting to post a ton and get revenge.

    THey are using proxies... what are a list of proxy IPs to ban? I've banned a bunch but would like to COPY/pASTE huge list.
