A few people suggested I  turn on guest posting similar to what TWCC did. I have done so and set the captcha settings a bit higher. If you notice spam posts report them at once. If it does become a problem I will turn it off or increase the captcha strength.

Thanks :)

We know from the past that playing monkey see monkey do isn't always good. Just because Matt decides something is good for his forum doesn't necessarily mean its good for this one too. As long as this is working out ok I'm in favor. But the problem is that it puts a big burden on the admin team, because you have to watch guest posts like a hawk to make sure all stays well. We all know there are alot of idiots in the TWC fan community (think Felipe).  :D

BTWm why exactly is it that every time Matt does something everyone wants us to do it too? I never could figure that out.  :thinking:

So far its hasn't been a problem and I increased the captcha strength on guest posting. If it ever is I can axe it.  Haha Matt is awesome but so are you Gary. We still love you :P
