 * Out of 3 network sites I’ve, one has the role of registered user as author and
   rest two has subscriber.
 * In last a few weeks I’ve been getting a lot of spam users generated automatically
   in my instance and since the user has author profile in one network site, they
   are able to generate random posts as well.
 * I tried to watch out a lot of spam control plugins. However, posting this thread
   to ask:
 * 1. Should I use any plugin
    2. or, can it be controlled by any such coding?
 * If I’ve to use plugin, what are the recommendations of the experts out there?
