Ok PHPBB3 has a new out of the box feature, visual registration, so people have to enter letters/numbers to register to my forum.

Now it is well known it has been broken so I am getting about 50 spam registration a week, which is more than annoying.

On PHPBB2 there was a plugin to ask a customer question during registration, very effective, but on PHPBB3 I cannot find anything compatible since it is out of the box, many devs did not bother adapting their code.

Anyway, anyone would have a link to an effective anti spam registration plugin, where I can set up a custom question?

Cheers in advance
