Re: To get rid of spammers
To be honest captcha works anytime, the problem is with fourums .
You have to update, and upgrade not only the files but also the themes.
There is a topic in phpbb https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=2122696 .
And this is also nice to have https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... 9&t=753485

Re: To get rid of spammers
No need to install a mod....
There are a few anti spam captcha plugins that only require their files to be copied inside the forum files and they are then instantly available in the relevant section of admin panel.
Anyone of the following will do my personal favourite is sortables captcha plugin....
See how easy it is to install ( only a copy-paste required) https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/view ... l/id_57741
