yes, the question though is do they know the project name
it certainly doesnt pay for them to do this just with one or even
a hundread websites. If it wasnt in our URL i would say they would
be out of the game too. As it is in the URL iam curious if these
2 questions will decrease human spam or not
also the live criminals might have automated some of their trac attack
procedure, that extra page might throw some off balance
