The admin has to ASK to move it to a different section?

Go fuck yourself.

As an aside... These posts are so funny.

It's only a matter of time before they're frequently appearing in actual discussion threads.

BTW, it's not like we're not trying to control this.

We've altered the registration form slightly to confuse/fuck most bots. They've adapted.

We tried doing manual approval, but the fucked up way phpbb does it, requires you to click on the link, which makes it active, before you can then deactivate it. In addition to the fact that most 'real' account sign ups get lost in the flood of shit.

And the captcha (image verification system, is beyond ass) see PWNtcha ( http://sam.zoy.org/pwntcha/ )

If someone hears of how another board handles this type of shit, we're all ears.

I'll also paste this in to it's own post, as most people know better than to click on this bullshit.

Sorry, I (and others) didn't realize that the steps you guys had already taken wouldn't have the affect we desired. I thought it was just 'that easy'.

I don't even see a very good option to completely shut off registration altogether. You'd think there would be a switch to flip.

Have you tried the easy button? I see it on TV all the time, maybe it can fix this...
