Well one easy way is to limit the # of q's per day and per hour. It won't eliminate it, but it will reduce it.
But, I have a hunch they are coming from a certain IP addy (or a few) and maybe they could block those.
They've had some problems before with this on both blog posts and comments and have been able to block most of it.

Good morning. This really sucks, AR should limit the number of questions per day to one.

I've noticed plenty of spammy Qs tonight. I'd be happy to mark them as a spam, but there is no option for that. That is just silly AR creators:(

It does seem that the spam is getting a little out of hand. You would think that something could be done.

I think it's a good idea. However, they are doing this already with messages that are being sent to members and there are still plenty of spammy and bogus messages coming through. I guess it all depends on how determined the spammers are.

Virtual Realty Consultants I believe AR went to a Capcha once before. If I recall, there were a lot of complaints about it.

Good Sunday morning. Yes, it seems as if the spammers have infiltrated the Q&A section. There's more spam than questions.

I don't understand the value of spam to the people doing it - I think the verification or limit of one question an hour or day is good.

It is getting out of hand the last 4 days or so. It's not even real estate related spam which makes no sense to post here. Hopefully it will get taken care of.

That is a good idea. Those programs cost money but the spammers are getting out of hand.
