Image verification has been added to the user registration process. This should eliminate the bot attacks that have plagued the site the past few days.

Thanks Wolvie56X, we will take you up on that offer. CTSixshot has done a great job helping keep the spam posts off, but one more set of eyes certainly could not hurt.

If you google "stop forum spam phpBB" you'll find lots and lots and lots of articles regarding this issue. One of the things I read is that phpBB2 is more vulnerable, whereas phpBB3 has some useful plugins/mods that help keep spam to a minimum. Might be time for an upgrade?

We have changed the way new users create an account. Now a link is emailed to the address and the new user must activate the account by clicking on it.

Hopefully that will cut down on all the crap coming down the line and the fact that there are now several mods on the board should also help.
