Edit: Wrong section, found a thread regarding this elsewhere. Sorry ;(
General news seems to be full of em.
Started to report them, then notice theres a bunch more than I thought and could be bothered waiting a minute between each report.
Maybe a the captcha for sign up needs to be changed? They all look like bots. (I don't even remember if there is a captcha on sign up, I just assumed so.)

Don't mind the bots, they give the best news and best advice on which movies to watch! :)

You would be surprised how many bots get stopped by all the filters. It's annoying that any make it through at all, but there's been a lot done in attempts to prevent them entirely.

I had a similar problem with bots recently on my forum. I made a few changes and haven't had a single one in a week. :)
Pretty much I deleted all of the old security questions that are randomly put in the registration form and I made new ones that require the use of a custom made image. There are a few but here is just an example of one:
