Spammed@!!?

Looks like you need attentive moderators....!
You will find hundreds of "Joobmans" trying to get in.
You'll have to make it harder for "bots" and other hackers to join, usually make them put in a series of letters/numbers. It is a good idea to have ALL new registrations approved by moderators/admins. As I said, good luck, business as usual for forums.

Thanks, Tom. In fact, we do take those precautions. We have both image verification and email verification when a user registers. Moderation can help, but is certainly no guarantee... we didn't want to implement that during launch week. Unfortunately, spammers are a way-of-life on these kind of sites. Night shift moderators are the best defense... are you volunteering, Tom?
