Installing the reCAPTCHA mod for the forum would help. Should be fairly easy to do, according to what I read.

I'll look in to it, cause this is really not a good solution.
I had over 150 new members this week!!!! They seemed all bots, but it's possible I accidentally rejected a real one in the mess :(

Just yesterday I was going to post a message here stating that we haven't had a new member since November. Something has gone wrong again.


Come back GM!!

I think we should start calling them "Fun Bots", they may seem less annoying then. Positive outlook people!

I can only remove the messages. I can't remove the bots. Only G and Niels can do that.

don't worry it's still from the other day, I just approved everyone because there were so many waiting. They will all get cleaned up tomorrow.
