In the last couple of days, we had a lot of forum registrations. Usually a good thing, unless there are suddenly a hundred more users, then an hour earlier. And true enough, they had signature-spams (links to dubious sites in the signature) and usually @gmail.com email address. As a result, I banned the usage of @gmail.com, @yahoo.com and @yahoo.uk.co email addresses for the time being. This should only effect new registrations. If not, please let me know.
Also,
I deleted almost all user accounts with zero posts (about 400). If someone got deleted unjustly, please register again. Since there was no post, there was no harm done, too.
From now on,
I will delete all accounts with zero posts after 30 days. Unfortunately, I have to assume they are "spam accounts". If not, well, if you don't want to communicate/participate/ask questions, you don't really need an account!
My apologies for any inconvenience.
