Fighting Spam on this Board
There have been occassional bits of spam on this board, although not too many. I do have to spend some time periodically deleting spam accounts that get created. To that end, I am thinking about requring admin approval for administration. This way I don't have to hunt down and look at each user to figure out whether they are legitimate or not.

Personally I think your SPAM fighting takes care of things just fine (as long as you're not away from home, at least). If you want to enabble registration I don't think it would hurt, though.

And giving me the ability to delete spam posts helps as well!dann wrote:Wow, ever since I enable email verification the spam on the board has really increased.
I've deleted a total of maybe 3 spam posts in the last few weeks. Unfortunately I don't have admin privileges on the LAGER boards otherwise those last couple of spam posts would of been deleted quicker.

Ego contemno licentia
I haven't seen much spam lately, but there's one about the best cum shot that's obviously spam. Are there some other people on the board who could help take some of the burden off you guys. I mean, I think Tsuroerusu would make a fine moderator, and there are a few others on the board who would do just as well. Just a thought.
