On everyone's profile page, below where you can enter 3 guns you own, there is a question that asks "Can you spell?: e" Why is that there?

I tried searching this and nothing was relevant.

That's the spam control letter that you entered when you signed up on this forum.
The 4th letter of the word "DEFENSE" is letter E.

I remember doing that now. Thanks man! I could not figure it out.

And even with that and the other "Turing" tests, we still manage to get a few spammers that slip through. Yep, folks are now hiring human spammers in outsourced sweatshops (ie.: India call centers).
