A solution vs annoying spambots...

captcha for threads/replies is waaaaaaaaaay too inconvenient. so would be putting posts in a queue for moderation.

we have captcha installed for creating new accounts.

maybe an idea we could take from this would be requiring captcha until you have say 10 posts, like images/links. not sure if that would suck too much for our new legit members though.

I think if they really want to learn they won't mind putting in a bit extra effort for the first 10 posts, someone can always convert or link a hand for them. Limiting time between posts (say 1hr) for the first 10 posts would help as well.
