SDS Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 What is the last name of the Buffalo Sabres' Head Coach? We are getting a boatload of spam accounts being registered and I would like to weed out the ones who can answer the simple the math question I had by asking a very easy question that someone with even passing knowledge of the Sabres could answer. Is this fair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 I'd go a step further and add a few more questions, to eliminate bandwagon hangers-on too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEnnis the Menace Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 I think it'd be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korab rules Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Ask who the Sabres' first draft pick was, and require they spell it correctly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frisky Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Could you use the recaptcha program? I've seen it used alot on other websites to weed out the bots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Just out of curiosity, how do you know they're spam accounts before they even post once? Are the names that blatant or is there some other crazy stuff you get to see. And as for the question, I kind of wish we could have one for longtime posters who got on board before the question existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually surprised when I finally joined (I lurked for a looonng time) that there was only a simple math problem, and no trivia question or anything.

grinreaper Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 I think you should ask; "who scored the series clinching OT goal against the St. Louis Blues in 1976"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this fair? But that doesn't weed out canine registrants, though. Maybe you should also ask what covers a house? or who is the greatest baseball player of all time?
