What's with all these yahoos coming here, creating "accounts," and dumping their unwanted rubbish on Goodman Games Forums?

These bogus accounts are getting created faster than a frog on hot asphalt!

They should be ashamed of themselves.

umm... i meant, you might want to enable it, sorry

bots can't figure out words implanted in jpeg files, so that confirmaiton thing will stop them (most of the time) if you have one

phpBB 2.0.13 doesn't have visual confirmation option. Need at least version 2.0.15 for that, I believe.
