Dear /prog/enitors.

We need your help.

Some idiot script kiddie has written a script that spams /a/ with the same image rotated by 90 degrees.  at the moment it is fucking the mods over because the content is changing therefore they cant ban by ip.

What im asking is for you guys to come up with a way to combat this spam.  Cheers

There is always a solution. I said in this case, registration and capatachas are probably good examples of what the solution is not. IP banning is a very archaic and nonsensical practice. It doesn't actually FIX the problem; it just puts it on hold. I don't know where your capatcha hate comes from; but quite frankly they are a godsend for legitimate users; nothing of a hindrance cf with life without them. Wait and see how much legitimate users are hindered from posting on websites once there is no longer any way of authenticating a user as human. That said capatchas on 4chan would be a no-no.
