Ok, my site, located at http://gunzunlimited.com, is being victimized by spam bots. These bots have usernames that end in numbers and spam my news posts like every 2-3 days. Different spam bots come in like each day. Yes, I do use image verification on the Registration but it don't work. The spam bots oftentimes use dynamic ip addresses, which makes it a lot worse.

What do I do?

Use "New members activated by admin". Admin Panel --> System Admin --> Registration Settings --> Set: New members activated by admin? to YES
