You don't setup a captcha for the registration process?

Dude, didn't you pick the image & solve the math problem when you signed up?

We saw a couple Dark Web successful sign-ups a few months ago but now it's like once a week. It could be all those bot attempted sign-ups were from the Dark Web. We'll turn on the IP sniffer if there's another take-down but then somebody has to tend it.

I don't even understand what is the point other than spam. The spam is always ridiculously funny. So weird

Heh. That math problem was EASY. I crashed the gate doing ninety-eight.

The way the Google search algorithm works is through links to credible pages. My company page, Hash.com, used to be in the Top 100,000, so it was super valuable to get a posted link into, not so much anymore, and that was early in the game. The MartinHash.com domain has been around for 10 years, and though it doesn't have a lot of traffic, it is a credible, non-commercial site. Maybe there's a monitoring tool that shows us higher than we think we are, or maybe me spamming the shit out of the forum has attracted undue negative attention?
