The Neverending Story... Spambot Edition

Post by Gunman »

As much as we all appreciate DAC being badly looked after, I suggest we come up with an Endlösung for the Spambot problem.

Or open a new forum for DAC's golfing needs.

I blame Prosper for the spambots. Whenever he shows up, so do spambots.

Edit:

How about manual approval of new members? This would keep swell guy and bots out. It'd also be tedious and nobody will want to do it... so yeah. Just an idea.

I would delete users who are spambots but I don't know how, I have to ask KoC about it.
