It's because we've been talking about them. Much like Beetlejuice or Candyman, if you say their name three times...

Let's try a traditional captcha and see how that works... I seem to remember it NOT working, but that could have been on a different forum for all I know...

Well, I had set it up with Google's "reCaptcha" system - which seems to be a bit different. Fortunately I've seen a lot less kitchen spam today, but I did see a different type of spam poster... I guess we will just have to live with them, and really, deleting one or two per day isn't difficult at all.

I was wondering if you'd started admitting Thargoids to the board...
