Why is this getting more and more common?

I think you should make this Lounge invite only..

Like alpha testers only get to come here, cause this sh!t is getting annoying

[Joe M.]

no kidding. Karl, is there a way you can slow down new members or stop bots from signing up? A bot will create an account name and post about 15 spam-posts at a time.

[Rabit561]

I was thinking it wasn't that big of an idea.. Since we are supposedly getting a new website anyways.. right?

I'm hoping its not another phpBB, from what I'm told they are easily bypassed by bots, Well as well as I can see it.. Obviously XD

[Karl G.]

Yeah PHPBB being free and all, not all potential security problems that are found go reported since spammers want to exploit the problems not fix them. There isn't much I can do about this since the spammers have found their way around PHPBB's security anyway. I have been doing IP bans but they don't seem to help.

[Rabit561]

Well your only banning proxies, and I'm sure you have better things to do..

But I think at some time or later you should find a new format of forum..

[Joe M.]

Yeah, we'll be looking into that for Beta.
