Over the past month SPAM has become a problem. Because of this the board has changed the registration process. This now not only includes the system sending an email to the persons email address and having them reply, but now also having a Admin review. With the old system, by having just the board verify the email address was not working. Bots were able to bypass this and then were allowed to gain access to post SPAM, even some of an adult nature!

Although this adds a longer time needed to complete the registration process, it is ment to prevent SPAM and to keep our board on topic.
