Tightened registration security - FreelanceWizard - 02-20-2014

Due to the annoying spammers that keep showing up on the forums, I've begun the process of tightening up registration security. You may notice, for instance, that the signup questions now require some very basic knowledge about the game. I have also implemented some IP address blocks based on some anti-spam databases.

If you're a legitimate user and you find yourself unable to register due to one of these two countermeasures, please contact me in game and we'll work something out. Smile

Good thinking, Wiz. Can I call you that? Wiz?

Hey, he's since got over that childhood bedwetting. Give him a break.

But yes, it's been pretty much a daily occurrence! I work nights so I'm on here around 2-3AM when we learn of the all new Nike shoes and other great things like that. (but mainly Nike shoes)

I guess I noticed that one right away, considering I had one of those questions pop up in my registration. Big Grin
