    I couldn't find the right section for this so please move it where it belongs if possible.

    I know the Spam bots are annoying (I hate them) and I thought, how about implementing some type of CAPTCHA system or any type of verification system before submitting a new threads?

    If they have actual people doing the posting then I guess that would defeat the purpose but if they're using bots to spam the forums then that should stop them.

    Actually that's what I meant to suggest, fore new threads not posts thanks to both of you for the correction. I edited the initial post to correct it.
