Registration problem - MyBB rejects everyone as spammers

[sengratt1]

Ok, 1.6.5 game with a hidden Captcha field. You can access the settings in the User Registration settings.
Can you tell me if the hidden field is activated or not?
Thanks

I deactivated & uninstalled the JavaScript Bot protection, and re-installed and activated it.

Then I tried to register while it was in the "on" setting, to which registration failed.

Then I switched it to "off", to which registration failed.

I deactived & uninstalled again, and tried to re-register, and MyBB still throws the spam exception.

I really don't think this is plugin related, though. Because the error is part of the core system, as it is included in the standard Language file and appears to be a hook. (error_spam_notify)

So my question remains.... What in MyBB causes that hook to turn true?
