I think this is a good idea since the forums dont tend to get that many people registering for it to mass you up with the activation things =D

Invision Board correct the bot problem when it updated to 2.2.

I think it had to do with capitalizing the security code. Though, I'm not sure.

It's about time that the policy around here became more strict when it comes to spamming morons. At least it was easy for me to get into TACC back when I joined. Big Grin
