Search maybe for the word "register" Div id="title" Div id="topicpost" and such. It's also interesting how bots always the as their post icon. If you can find some way to screw up the way the bots work, and still work for everyone else of course... then that works. Edit: Oh yes, and not every bad post is from a bot... it could be from a person who purposely wanted to do that on the amgmc ( Such as a perviously banned person ) I really wouldn't know myself, but these ideas dont stop bad posts still.

That's actually a good idea, but it's not that much of a problem yet. rig: I can't edit the PHP code. I could add it with javascript, but that wouldn't apply to bots. I think all of these that end with "a" are bots.
