We seem to be having a spate of it today - thanks for the reports - please keep them coming if you see anything you think we should know about. Hopefully akirk will be a long shortly to lock things down a bit more tightly.

No sign of Admin, who I really need to tighten up the sign-up as I don't have permissions to do that.
Done what I can, will try and keep an eye on it later. Hopefully no important posts lost in the tidyup so far.

It needs an english language maths question on signup. Somthing like:
"What is six times seven? Answer in digits."
That stopped bot signups completely on the phpBB installation that I ran.

LOL ^^^^^^^ - and as if by magic. Have you got anti spam sign-up system?
If you need a mod, I am happy to try and do my bit. Do it elsewhere quite a lot.

Akirk is going to be busy! Can't trust anyone to look after the place whilst you just nip out!!
