I think I have this under control...I THINK.
It just goes to show, how important that VIP code mod was on the old board. From June 19 (day 1) to June 20 (day 2)...49 SPAMMERS signed up to the board!! 49 of them...How on earth do they find the board so fast...I'll never know.
I've turned on visual code to sign up, and Admin approval (for now). If I see the visual code working to stop the BOTS and not to many real people trying it....I'll allow users to activate on their own.
Crazy.
