Spam :(
Arseen:
Thank you sheep2001. :D
I know 3 active members whose accounts have been deleted. None which I have deleted with 100% certainty.
I have deleted few newbies by accident.
I admid I have banned few accidentally, all which i have unbanned as soon as I've got message.
But yes recently there has been more spam by far.
And yes I have time, the wait time would be around few hours, less if I'm not working.
Manual activation takes less time than hunting the spam accounts afterwards. There is about 8-9 times more clear spam accounts semi-dormant than there is those that activly spam.

From my point of view the best decision for the moment is to close the sign-ups until the scammers will go away (maybe; I WISH).
If was my case I will implement something like this:
When someone wants to sign up he must complete the registration section, then a form and finally send an email with the form or something like that to a moderator (admin, or someone with big power) and based on his form the moderator will grant or not the registration.
That form will contain lots of questions about him, about his collection or something like that and maybe provide some uploads with cover scans.
I think in this case a spammer don't have the time to stay to complete the registration section then the form and finally wait for the moderator to grant him the registration; he must be fast with the time.
What do you think about my point of view?
