However, they are not able to read a sentence and do what it says. If you say "please type the word green in the box", they will just see it as a box that needs to be filled. They have no way to know to type "green" in the box to pass the test. If this is required in order to register, they can't sign up, which means they also can't make new topics and posts.

And I totally agree, giving players the ability to delete threads would be a disaster in many ways.

Another option is to disallow thread creation when the mods are sleeping. That wouldn't hurt the game, and people could still respond to threads but would have to wait till morning to post new ideas. This option is not as user-friendly as the first, but it would also help.
Sorry im aware of what bots are and what they can be capable of, asnt surr if ruizhe was insinuating that the bots might actually be a person >. <

+1 to the rest of the post tho ^.^
