Re: [pygame] pygame.org wiki spam

Hi,

Adding this to the list of antispam tasks for later...


Enable recatcha for users that are less than 1 month old.  Most of the spammers are currently people, so this will just slow them down a bit... but it will stop most of the really annoying bots.  That way it shouldn't inconvenience people too much, since most legit wiki editors have accounts older than a month.

Fairly easy way to implement it:

cheers,
