with all due respect, this is unhelpful. I don't think your team are taking onboard the severity of this recent wave of bots ability to crack even the hardest of Q&A.
We are because we got it as well and we had it on our own boards.
I changed my Q&A and it stopped. That's it.

We know from experience that if you have a Q&A that is based on general knowledge like what colour is the sky, the bots will crack it immediately. Anything you can get the answer for on google will be beaten pretty quickly. You have to think a bit more laterally with a question that requires understanding and logic to solve, like asking something about a logo etc. Also though, that cannot be an easy question like what colour is... or how many... because they'll just try red, blue, green etc until they get it right. At the moment, the bots really struggle with things you have to solve and understand and your question can be effective for a very long time.
