Well, I didn't have to take this forum off the air to stop the spammers from signing up and putting their bad neighbourhood urls in their profiles - which cost this forum its page rank with Google.
I just disables the new registrations tab so NO ONE can sign up! Not good for anyone who genuinely wants to sign up, but if there is anyone who wants to, they can contact me by email - check the contacts tab at the main site
(I'm not publishing an email address in here as the swines will scrape it and spam my inbox!)
Otherwise, its less work for me, saving me up to 20 minutes work a day just cleaning all those crappy bogus new members out. Much better.
