@ak-tech I don't know about firebase hosting... As long as it runs on a compatible OS and has Shell access, I don't see why it can't.
SweetCaptcha

Has anybody considered using SweetCaptcha. It is said to work on the iPhone and Android, but I'm not sure how you drag-and-dop on a touch device.
It has a Node.js SDK.

Hey, this is cute.
- Novel CAPTCHA system -- check
- Node.js SDK -- check
Sweet. Just need hooks to add it to user reg (haven't even begun to think about that one yet...)

Yep, you really have to be human to even signup. Shows how effective it will be. Considering how easy it will be to implement, expecting it on 0.4.0 will not be expecting too much, right?
-
I think this is a pretty unsecure one, since even a stupid algorithm would match 1/4.
There seem to be better ones within npm like ayah and the conventional ones.
I hope the plugin-author will give the possibility to choose between some of them
-
a simple challenge response is often better and less annoying than those captcha's.
I run a pretty decent minecraft forum, and during reg it asks a simple question, "what game are you here to play?" Or complete the word mine_____, so far little to no spam and its been up 4 years.
-
I really have no preference. I just want something to thwart spam registrations. @frissdiegurke, ayah seems a little bit too involved, and @kelso, yes, that actually sounds like a good one.
It's now a question of which one @baris, @psychobunny and @julian will choose to implement. Fingers crossed.

Now cross your fingers and click your heels three times.

If that's all it's going to take, not a problem, Sir.
-
If its going to be a plugin I would hope that we'd just need to make one as a skeleton for any other dev to implement their own version
-
Where does that leave forum admins who are not developers?
If your idea of a "skeleton" plugin is like the challenge-response type that @kelso suggested, I think it's a great idea.

@planner, @psychobunny means that we'd create a fully-functional CAPTCHA plugin, and allow other developers to look at the code and create their own derivatives

The English language is an interesting thing. To quote Winston Churchill, "It is a universal language that divides us all." Who would have thought that skeleton means the same thing as fully-functional. But I'l give that a
, never mind what the language means or doesn't mean.
