On a more serious note: the last couple of weeks we've seen many registrations of new "members" pass by. For a lot of those a random name (+ a few figures) was chosen. For example "brandon06". Those "members don't post a single word, but the profile often includes a bunch of rubbish and links (website, or signature) this board has nothing to do with. I try to clean up the memberlist regularly (if links are added), but sometimes someone slips through. I hope this is temporary. Otherwise we might have to make some changes in the registration.
