I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

welp...I've finished reporting all the posts. Man, I think I just reported like another 150 since I got home.

We do need more active Mods, or at least some Spam Patrol Mod people or something.

I'm wondering if making people wait like 2 days after they register before they can post would fix or at least limit this kind of thing. Additionally a lot of sites use that messed up letter and number thing that's suppose to prevent this.

Captchas are beautiful. Annoying as hell but beautiful.
