    Can admins here require all new users be authorized individually by an admin? Can you add some "human" questions to verify a pulse?

    In the first year or so of CUF it got to where we were getting overwhelmed with spam accounts, often several a day. Then I installed an add-in that requires a new user to go through an e-mail verification process and the spam accounts went down by 95% or so. I am confident that all of the spam accounts now are real humans. At some point there is nothing you can do but zap them when they show up.

          ok, so this is a Ute-type attack or attack from Tulsa...maybe even from El Joto himself?

          IP tracking, baby. Then hand over the IPs to the FBI's cybercrime unit to see if there's any minors in the images shown and all of a sudden, "funny" joke turns into a felony. Surely, with all these lawyers here, someone has worked with that unit before (sorry, couldn't help that one).

                      Really bad stuff. So bad I started deleting threads without even looking.
                      Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

                      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                        There was more than one? After the first thread by somebody I didn't know I figured I'd better not click on another.

                            I'm up at 4:30 am Brasilia (most days). I thankfully did not click on the 4-5 obviously jacked up threads at around 6:30ish.

                              Careful brother. Watching porn might make you gay.
