What's the deal with all of the "new members" with links to casino websites and things like that? Is there a way to delete them? They've been "signing up" left and right recently...

Probably just attemps to spam the forums, or at least Jer. I think the only person who can delete them is Jer.

Becca has brought it to my attention about all the spammers. I have been tracking them for a few weeks now and deleting them when I see them. I do, however, miss a few.

I now have the new member signup process set up that I need to verify every new member. This is a little time consuming and keeps future members from being able to signup quickly and post.

It is such a shame. First, we get hacked, and now we get spammers. I swear these dirtbags have nothing better to do. They must have such miserable lives that they feel the need to make others miserable. Misery loves company as they say.

I am looking into a script to ban certain ip addresses. Hopefully then, that will solve the problem for good. I think it is only one or two people anyways.

If anybody sees someone intentially spamming the boards, please message me and I will take care of it.

Thanks again for all the support!

Jer, have you considered that one verification tool, where it's a box with numbers and letters and you have to enter the numbers or letters correctly in order to verify the person registering isn't a spambot?

It looks like this:

I don't know what its called but a lot of websites use it in order to prevent spambots from registering.
