Exactly. To avoid contact form spam I added a simple "Fill in this number (123):" to on of our forms. The number is even hardcoded! But that was enough to reduce contact form spam from ~10-20 a day to zero.
- TazeTSchnitzel 7y agoI am one of the admins on a forum for an open-source video game. We have two extremely easy questions required on signup (one asks for part of the domain name of the site, the other is a trivially googleable game fact) purely to stop untargeted spam attacks and it is remarkably effective. Of course some spammers get through, but that's why we have moderators.
