I am having difficulties in clearing this spam post in my forum lately. 
some of this spams are posting adult and illegal content. please help me.

I already tried changing security question every often.
please help me.

Hi,

no Captcha or reCAPTCHA on registration?

You're a spammer's dream....

Please add reCAPTCHA on registration and you'll see how spam decreases.

Set "Minimum stop forum spam weighting" to Zero.

• Have different security questions with different answers. Not the same answer.
  
• recaptcha 2 would be the best
  
• email verification
  
• restrict user group until after their first post.
  
• block subject titles from keywords
  

I have a very simple method that works great.

I created a plugin that closes an account based on keywords in the post. It's very effective actually. Because all spam has certain keywords that regular members don't use.

How do you add reCAPTCHA to myBB 1.8.14? I can't seem to find any that support the platform.
