Simple way to stop spammer bots

[Giwin]

These bots work on static subforum filenames, such as the ones used in templates by certain companys such as vBulletin etc

All you need to do is add an invisible mark by pressing Alt + 255, and this will stop bots posting because they can't find "general forum".

Not sure if this would break the board though

Or switch the human verification method over to answer a question, ie:

Q:What is the name of these forums:
A:Honor buddy, the buddy forums,thebuddyforums,buddyforums,buddy,etc

just make it as easy for a person to put the right answer in but a bot will be like derp.
