Have you seen this kind of thing at other discussion forums?
Well, actually as I said in my first post, I have not ever really felt the need to join or even post in an online forum with the strange exception of this one!
I do know that as a forum becomes bigger, there is more of a chance for it to attract spam and unhelpful users. And we already have 969 members registered here! It might also have to do with the event of a massive amount of positivity attracting the negativity for balance.
I'm a newbie myself, so I can't in good faith recommend any changes to the site, only suggestions. I suggest maybe a clearer mission statement on the front page or clearer link to the L/L publications as the focus of the forum. Of course I think that your suggestion for the new, relative capcha is a great idea!
