spammers and the like
« on: November 26, 2008, 04:08:46 PM »
i think there needs to be a restriction on none registered people (guests) from posting links on the forums there have been a couple of dodgy looking posts over the last couple of days.

see the last 2 threads i have replied to for examples.

Done matey - also made the recruitment section where this occured registration necessary now. I'll have to update various places that say otherwise.

Registration is ME approved anyways so spammers wont slip thru onto the board :)

Is there a message at the top of the forum saying 'Please register to post... blablabla'?

Spam is teh annoying. However, forced registration is always nice to weed out possible guild members who can't even be bothered to do that.
