Please figure out a way to update the forum!!!!

Its getting really annoying for both myself and some of the supermods to delete spammers and their posts everyday!!!!

i was just thinking that when a person registers...if someone like you,rizwan,monk or the supermods could allow the registration of that person which would not just allow any person to just register..in other words you guys could approve his registration.Another thing is that shouldn't DTD have some sort of an expiry date on the accounts like if a person does not log in for a month the account would be deleted, thats another way of getting rid of these people and that way members who do contribute to DTD with posts, pictures etc would be logging in more often i guess.

then most of the members will be wiped out.

yeah very true indeed!!...but most of ones which get wiped out would be the ones who had joined it like a long time back and didn't post anything and all. But anyway i thought something like this could work out. One more thing i just thought of is that isn't having even 100 members who actually do something for DTD better than for example 500 who barely remember that they even are a member?

Forum has been updated. Spammers shouldn't be a problem anymore as the registration process now requires image verification. Some forum modifications and features might be missing. These will be fixed in due course. Thanks for your patience all this while with the spammers. Please do let me know if any spam message do come up again.

nice work rezwan!!Not getting a reply here for such a long time made me think that i may have said something that i shouldn't have and thats why no one bothered to reply..i hope that wasn't the case!!Just tried to help all the DTD members with what came to mind..
