Please send an email to h e n r y 7 8 3 6 (at) y a h o o (dot) c o (dot) uk .
People are now unable to create accounts due to the fact that there were too many bots registering. Sorry about the inconvenience. |

Is this temporary? I hope it is, other people will find it EVEN harder to register.

| This isn't temporary, how do you find it hard to register? The main reason for this was that in one week, we had over 20 robots who had signed in. |

Well, speaking from my own experience, I did the standard registration and then had to wait for an email confirmation(sort of the kind you usually wait for with the confirmation codes), which there wasn't really. So yes, it is a tad bit more difficult.
You could have that, the confirmation thing; isn't that what it's purpose is for? To avoid spambots?
In any case, I hope more people will join in this great forum of yours.

Hmm... usually, I respond to the confirmation thing quite early, perhaps in future I can e-mail them personally to tell them that I've activated their account.
I'm glad you like this forum! ^_^ |

How the heck did the spambot "BritneyHill" get past you?
Are you still making people email to (backwards)
k u (dot) c o (dot) o o h a y (at) 6 3 8 7 y r n e h
to register?

I think it would be a good idea to require any new user to list in their "interests" either language or writing or making things up or a synonym to one of them.
Also, their "location" can't be an advertisement; nor can their username be an advertisement.
And if they list a website it can't be mostly an advertisement on its first page -- especially not for porn or gambling or viagra.

I actually took down the process of going through me.
I think it will need to be implemented again.
I will delete those users. Thank you for telling me, Eldin Raigmore. =) |
