Measures to stop spam and unactivated registrations

Post by admin »

Changes:

* gmail.com is now blocked. They were blocking our activation emails causing tons of inactive accounts. We have returned the favor by blocking this email domain.

* The registration question was revised to hopefully be more difficult for bots.

* I'm thinking of deleting accounts with no posts within a month of registration, just to clean up the database.

EDIT: Deleted users from before Dec. 1 2024 with no posts. I kept a few whose names I recognized from doom9 land.
