      @Enes-Uysal registration queue! That's the most effective way.

      And turn on spam-be-gone if not already enabled.

        Are there any plans to add something like Altcha to the registration flow. That could present a deterrent to bots with minimal disruption to regular users

        I used Claude to build an ALTCHA registration plugin and its hosted here:
        https://github.com/sweetppro/nodebb-plugin-altcha

        you can see it on my registration page here:

        🙂

          @sweetp that's correct ― the flow for this kind of functionality is through a plugin.

          We support (via plugins) quite a nice variety of options, like spam-be-gone, and now altcha <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://community.nodebb.org/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f604.png?v=579bcfd5f54" title="😄" />
