| Administrator Approval Required | |
|
|
Due to the flood of spammers lately (I just kicked three more) all new registrants will need administrator approval before they can post for the time being. This is a bit of a draconian way to deal with it, but I'm out of options at the moment. Long story short, if you are a member and have a friend that signs up, let me know and I'll approve them. If you just stumble across the site and want to join, email me at ace(at)akanime.org. I'm thinking on a better way to deal with this right now, but this will keep anyone from signing up to spam us for the time being. Discuss this announcement here. |

| Mass Purging | |
|
|
I just purged about 15 accounts from the forums for being bots and/or spammers. Unfortunately, since this was a fairly large operation, I may have accidentally caught a real person in the crossfire (I doubt it, but hey, I'm only human). If you are interested in our group and your account was deleted, I do apologize. Feel free to recreate your account and when you do, make sure to send me a private message letting me know. 95% of the people I deleted were suspected spammers because of links in the signature (specifically if that's all that was in the signature and it linked to some sort of product). The other 5% were people who were not activated and had had less than 30 seconds online (typically a strong indicator of a bot). Again, apologies if you got caught in the crossfire. Once finals are over for me I'm going to see what I can do about tightening the ability to sign up to make it harder for spambots to make it to the forums. If they continue to sign up for our forums, I will resort to banning full IP ranges. I don't wish to do this, but there's only so much we can deal with. Discuss this announcement here. |
