The ones that force people to answer a random question seem to work pretty well.
 
I have two anti-spambot MODs installed on my forum. GMT-12 is blocked, and I have a question on the registration page. I still get an occasional bot who slips through, though. x_x

What's the GMT -12 timezone? Isn't that an island one or something? I remember seeing something about this on another forum...

Well if you're banning a timezone, isn't it best to know where you are banning? :roll:
GMT±12 is part of Russia, as well as both islands of New Zealand.

That's a good point! You don't want to ban people who are innocent!

China is located at GMT +8, nationwide.

My IPB forum will have IPS' Spam Service key implemented. Based on algorithms and other reports, it will give out a rating of 0-4 based on what it believes is a spammer. I block .ru and .cn email addresses from all my forums.

That wasn't I who banned that time zone.

That sounds handy, then you can know exactly who to ban and who not to ban. That's a good one.
