Turned off Moderation

[admin]

I turned off new user moderation to see how it goes now that we have an extensive list of IP ranges from countries which were the main offenders for SPAM.

I hope it does not cause too much spam, we will be dilligent to ban entire country netblocks of origin.

I feel we were missing out on too many good posts from real users using the moderation system, we'll see if I am correct.

Thanks,

Mike

Well, the word got around fast, I guess we'll need a more comprehensive list before we can turn off moderation.

Hi cully,

We have a few bugs to contend with and you may be the only one hopefully not with access part of getting it sorted out so new members don't have to wait for some time before approval .... and were just about there. This will be with less spammers getting on board so everyone can enjoy the forum better.
