a captcha can be bypassed. Whilst Captcha solvers do exists, I still think they should be able to slow down the influx of scam bots to an extent. I have some other ways to slow down the scam bot epidemic.


 * Limit account creation to 1 per device, and 2 per IP address, every 24 hours (these overlap, so if two devices make accounts on the same IP in a day, no other accounts can be made over the 24 hour timeframe). In theory, this would ultimately prevent high levels of bot accounts from being made ad nauseum, and I assume most players would only need one or two alts anyways.


 * Blocking all major VPNs. This could not only prevent IP bans from being circumvented but also would render device IP changers moot if applied with my above account creation limit.

They can make other email addresses and use public computers and public networks to make scam bots.
 * Users MUST verify their accounts. Probably my idea that would be the least effective, but I think it can still help. Verifiying your account is extremely important in case things go wrong anyways, so it might as well be forced. Also, there should be a limit to 5 accounts verified under the same e-mail address.
