Hello All,

I have pruned away the spam bots and have hopefully made it harder for them to get in.

Please note I might have accidentally deleted your account if you had 0 post and had registered in the last 2 days.

If this is the case I am sorry, please simply create your account again.

Regards,
The009

Its a never ending battle i tell ya.

I have changed the registration settings to try to help stop them.

If this doesn't work I will take it a step farther and enable question and answer to the registration.

I have also blacklisted a massive list of ip address and some other measures.

I forgot how much of a pain in the * it is to get a forum going without bots on it lol.
