It appears so, two very spammy posts, completely out of context and no other posts.

Captcha
We've gotten zero posting bots thus far and it seems unlikely that this one is automated, it appears to be manual.
-
That's not to say that we've had zero bots, but we've had zero that managed to post.
-
Ah ok. Just curious. There is a cool Drupal module called honeypot. It creates a field hidden by CSS that when it's filled in, the system just throws away that submission.
Captcha seems to be working pretty well for you, which is somewhat surprising.
-
Yeah, we were surprised too. But before Captcha we had thousands of bots in almost no time. Afterwards basically zero. A few got through, but they looked manual and never posted. We cull heavily, so the rolls remain small while the number of accounts made over time are much higher. We've had probably 10,000 accounts actually created. Maybe less, but many thousands for sure (I manually deleted nearly 4,000 of them personally almost two full years ago.) We delete all the time, but now it is "as they are created." The mods get a message that an account is created and if it is obviously a bot or spammer, they get deleted within a few minutes.
The ones I see most commonly are "London escort agencies."
