Title: Site Security
Post by: Skitty on December 15, 2014, 10:28:02 AM
It seems somebody(s) got bored and decided to spam us.

While that is all well and fine its painfully annoying since the issue is not bot oriented but people. when registering on the forums you have to answer captcha codes and answer questions. something bots cannot do as far as i know. So my answer. join the honeypot. Over the next few days registration is on lock down. Any IP or username that seems off will be Banned and deleted off the forums. I will also be implementing new features for security that will hopefully prevent this from happening in the future.
