My plugin – https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/recaptcha-bbpress/ – does work with the latest version of bbpress.
However, if you are using a customized template, you may need to change that, as a 0.9 template I had didn’t work with it.
I’m not entirely sure how Akismet works, but doesn’t it work with matching email addresses to known spammers, rather than forum names?
I also think to trigger Akismet’s wrath, you’d also have to go on a mass commenting/spamming over a multitude of forums.
Just activate it, and if you’re not getting spam, assume it’s working 
If you’re familiar with ReCAPTCHA I’ve written a plugin that integrates this spam prevention tool with bbPress.
It’s still waiting to go into the SVN, but you can download it here – http://www.gospelrhys.co.uk/plugins/bbpress-plugins/recaptcha-bbpress-plugin
I’ve tested this on a 0.9 site, and it’s completely eliminated spam (since Sunday…at least!)
Yes, just saw that now. Thank you!
Figured it out by looking at the documentation. Silly me

Regarding the plugin, there’s a slight niggle. At the moment the plugin builds the profile URL from scratch. So it’s an extra (and I believe unessecary) option that you define if you have pretty permalinks or not.
Is there like a hook (similar to user_profile_link) that grabs the profile URL?
Also, I have no clue how to use the subversion repository. Is there a guide anywhere so I can upload my plugin there?
I have been accepted, just not sure what to do!
Hi everybody.
I have updated the plugin to allow the administrator to link to either the profile or to their chosen URL.
Let me know if you spot any bugs!
Should be very straightforward to do from the wordpress base. Could be nice to do it for both wordpress and bbpress.
No worries Trent, glad you could test this!
I have gone about submitting it (forgot a readme file, it can wait until the morning 
), but will include one tomorrow.
