I’ve added some anti-spam measures to the forums.  I was getting about 6 signups a day that were nothing but spam for various “performance enhancers”.

I modified it so that an admin has to manually approve registrations.

Also, spammers, take note: your profile will NOT appear on the Memberlist page.  Only members that are approved will appear there.  So don’t even waste your time or mine signing up, because your profile has to be approved by me in order to appear on the site.  And the chances of that happening are slimmer than a grandmaster losing to mate-in-one.  Oh, wait.  Well, let’s just say it’s a damn slim chance.

The SPAM issue has been taking my attention away from participating in the forum.  I hope to get some more action going there again now that this problem has been mostly solved.  Thanks to everyone who has participated so far!
