Solar and I added some extra questions to the new account registration process.  One of them, for instance, is "What color is a banana?".

It looks like that took care of the problem, but it will also make it difficult for a lib to register.

It has been pure Hell, I know I deleted more than 100, which took several hours.
I know Taxed was banning them, because while deleting accounts, I would come across them already banned.
Our member count shot up to somewhere above 700, but we got it back down to around 500 real members.

Oh it has to be evil trying to keep those nasties away.... just cracked me up something so simple as a "what color Is" question, can and does block em.  I figured it would take something above and beyond my IT brain, some super kill it program.   Just made me giggle that it was that easy,,,,, it's pretty cool actually....  Alot of times I think it takes a heck of a lot more to fix this kinda thing then it really does...

I'm just glad it was such an easy fix, rather than another update to our program, those are a freakin headache. :o
