Re: To Log In or Not to?
I know some didn't like the idea of having to login to see certain forums but it has helped immensely in determining where the spam was being generated from and has cut down on unnecessary usage of resources that is now being enjoyed by the registered users.
Did it make a difference to get lurkers to register? Well in the month of April alone we got a record 563 newly registered members after weeding through it all. I've managed to stop a lot of foreign spam from hitting the servers and it's cut the work of trying to process over 400 new memberships to a little over a hundred per day now and I expect that to drop as well as I weed out the remaining countries that are sending spam. We'll get the odd one that will slip through the cracks but so far it's been pretty good.
Anyone notice the website getting faster in the past 24 hours?
