We got pounded with spam this last month, all of it came from Australia. I have updated the forum code, and have added a forum moderation, and looking for a few more.

The new version does have some enhancements for spam prevention, specifically it uses a pool of questions, each question with a pool of acceptable answers, here is what I have plugged in so far:

Please identify any storage protocol supported by 3PAR, 4 characters or less
Please enter the word(s) 3PAR uses to refer to SATA drives
Which company owns 3PAR

What do you guys think? Too easy/hard... goal is to keep the bots out while still permitted the technically challenged in for help. Please suggest more questions (without answers).

I actually dont know the answer to this question :
Please enter the word(s) 3PAR uses to refer to SATA drives ?

What is it? :-)

Thankfully i was able to create my account when prompted by the next question.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I need to update that to a modern question. The answer I was looking for was Nearline.
