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.


 * 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.
