Spammers...
« on: Nov 16, 2012, 02:39:31 PM »
As most of you know, we've been inundated with spammers in the last couple of days.. from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Poland... and others. 

I have - temporarily - changed the registration process so that all registrants require Admin Approval.  I have also banned 25+ “Bulk” IP address.... so far.

So, for now… we’re good.   All new applicants must be screened through the “Cynical Eyes” of this Admin.   ;D

I'm not trying to defend MC.com but... the admins and moderators are the first line of defense.
Where are they?

Hmmmm... maybe...
Although Ace is still an admin here and maybe on the Stryker site(I don't know)
he's pretty much taken a back seat to the new owners.
It's the responsibility of the "real" admin/mods to take control.  And I'm not poking at Ace about not being a "real" anything... he's just in a unique situation
