    How do I prevent spam in my forum?

    Captchas are very good when it's bots that you're targeting to stop spamming your website. It doesn't work on human spammers. This is why your forum need to have active staff members to spot out spammers early, delete their spam posts, moderate their account and probably ban them when necessary.

    Are you reserved or bold person?

    I don't think being bold and proud are the same thing. It's possible to be both of them at the same time though. I'm a bold person but equally meek too. I've noticed a lot persons get offended when dealing with a bold person.

    As long as I'm not the person who's going to drive, I don't have any problem with travelling. I don't like road trip so much because it takes too long even though it looks fun because of being able to stop and explore.

    Do you think it's necessary having mods and super mods?

    Personally, I don't think it's necessarily important for a forum to have moderators and super moderators at the same time. It's an unnecessary duplication of staff position because a moderator can do exactly what a super moderator can do. Do you support having mods and super mods in a forum?

    Manually Approving Accounts

    This is exactly what my approach is like when it comes to manually approving of accounts. Any member who haven't given me reason to restrict his account and activities on the forum wouldn't have he me put a chain on his account.
