Please delete this account ASAP. If he's not just a bot, soon he will be able to edit DB entries!

I got the account banned but not before it posted almost 30 messages. The filter has been pretty strong until this point and we had a real post-holiday lull but it may be time to turn up the restrictions.

This has to be the worst case I have seen on TPFC since its started! Is there anyway to improve the filter, it seems Captcha is easy to crack nowadays. Plus, I don't like the idea of having to wait for a mod to confirm the registration of a new user, it's more work for you 3 (webfork, usdcs & Andrew)

Edit: Hi Checker, where have you been?

Not in the forum (that's true), but busy in db version number updating (nearly 150 for 2011 now :wink: ) :lol:
But question back to you: "Where have you been?"
I'm missing your "added by guinness" at the main page :wink:

:mrgreen: I felt a little bad for adding more work for you, so I have taken a break for the first quarter of 2011. 150 updated applications wow! I for one appreciate it :)
