I only open them so I can copy the message to be forwarded over to Eric Calm. That way, he can ban the person doing it.

I thought I'd set the Forum registration so I had to approve all of them, but apparently, I had to re-set it. Looks like it's working now.

I went through the recent registrations and banned any suspicious ones.

Bastard snuck through my screen!

I've been approving all registrations and mussed have missed the suspicious info in this guy's and accidentally let him in.

We're still getting several fake registrations a day despite the fact that I delete them all (except one, apparently) before approving them.
