Proxy-checker?

We have an anti-bot measure in place.

That is the biggest problem with forums, when you get plagued with bots advertising XXX sites and male impotence medicines etc.

I don't mind the XXX ones but I now have enough Viagra to keep an elephant happy for thirty years (male or female :).

Remember we are all mods, if you see a user abusing these forums then deal with it accordingly, or email/PM me and I'll do it!

For now I don't want to close the forums to outsiders, I can however make it so any new users need to be activated by myself or Sloan....any thoughts any one?

As a mod, I feel that it is my duty to inform you that you are treading on thin ice in this forum. You're on step away from a permanent ban mister man! :P

I have to agree with Dazza an this one. At first I thought the topic was about a proxy checker, and with that in mind, Dazza's post made no frickin' sense. But when I saw that the new member's name was actually "Proxy Checker" it all became clear. I agree that it is fishy.

Therefore, I submit for the team's approval, the following proclamation:

"Here ye! Here ye! Notice all ye present this 11th day of May, the year of out Lord 2006, that Proxy Checker shall provide proof of difinitive human existence by posting in this thread and/or by dunking him/her into water to see if he/she floats. Failure to do so shall result in confinement of up to 6 months in the town stockade or a 2 hour conversation with Psycho, whichever punishment the magistrate shall deem more appropriate. Upon completion of the sentence, Proxy Server shall be banished from the kingdom of Kay-Nine-Dia forever, and escorted to the border by BG, provided BG can be enticed to put the bottle down long enough to make the journey. Thus be the ruling of this court, and may Oleg have mercy on your soul!"

This is exactly what was done at most every forum I've ever been a moderator of. Still allows anyone to register, but requires a human being to authenticate and approve the membership. Do hafta kinda stay on top of your e-mails though......the internet crowd is a fickle bunch, and do not like to wait long at all for anything...:)

Yer call though..

P.S. - This smilie scares me a little.......

:3some:

A scary one indeed, gender is not at all clear ;)

If we get any more weirdos registering then I will make activation compulsory, having 45 registered already could be considered enough :lol:
