Recently we had lot of trouble with spammers here on board.
in 2weeks around 2000 accounts registered with porn, comercials and other useless stuff. Evil or Very Mad

Now all inactive and spammed accounts was deleted.
We added a visual confirm by registering (to have a little bit prevent against register-bots). Also the edit of web and signature is now controlled trough admin. And additional we enhanced our internal email- and IP- blacklist (from the Spam IP's logged by registering of these accounts).

So, if you now have trouble by registering with your email, because of a blacklisted spam-Provider, please choose a more regular email provider.

Seems in this beautiful and hot summer only the spammers waste their time by sitting at computer running their bots. Common guys, go bathing, drinking, make party. Do not waste your time with this stupid stuff Cool

Sorry for the troubles
best regards
