Suggestion/Request Captcha Q&A module

As a user without extensive programming or customizing skills, if it is not yet planned anyway, I would be happy if a future version of phpBB would have the possibility to use images within the Q&A - for example by parsing the [img]-tag.

For the purposes of questions such as "what animal is this a picture of," I presume?

Doesn't seem unreasonable. Would be easier to implement all of BBcode at once ... so that you can also ask questions like "which words below are bold"

As a side note: in Re: Good Anti Spam Q & As Samples - Please share I also implemented variables to be used instead of plain text answers:
  • a valid palindrome,
  • a number with five distinct digits and
  • the current year.
Maybe someone has more ideas or wants to consider using this also for future versions. Remember that the question still can be as unique as the user decides to.

yeah, I am running an RPG forum and would have added photos of some dice with questions like: "What is the green D10" showing of "substract the D8 from the D12"...

I have switched antispam to text Q&A for now and this works fine, too - the last days I'm down from ~5 spambotregistrations to 0 -
