Hi there,

due to a massive increase in spam accounts, new users currently need to be approved before they can write in the forum.

Sorry for the inconvenience - will remove that once the situation is better :)

I personally approve that! Less shit, more chic!

wtyson

yeah getting the same shit on my site to... sucks having to delete this stuff all the time

Ok, spams seem to have gone back to a regular amount - will lift the need for approval for the time being :)

Kaemalux

We need again some brute force and a validation again, these day spam has been huge. :(

Just looking at the Latest Posts right now, I have my pick of spam threads. Maybe Gil does need to get out his club. :(

wtyson

to be honest i think you should just keep the new user approval system just to save your self the headache. or set up a human test on sign up.

I'll keep an eye on it for another 1-2 days before going back to approving new users. It's not as bad as it was back in March :)

Deleted User?

I hold two seats for Ork. My part time animator just attempted to create an account.
NevarrBlue user name, was just deleted. Can he be approved? What do I need to do?

gamingislove

Tell him to create another user, I probably deleted him with spam accounts :)

artainx

tell me about it, on my forums I get spam accounts everyday. Mostly from Ukraine ip

Wood

Thanks GIL, will do.

artainx

Aye the spammers are back in full force today! :(

Kirb

Ack, it's true

Reactivated approval for the time being - so if anyone got an issue with not being able to register or approved, just send me an email to contact@orkframework.com :)
