In Response To: Re: The spams! (Simon/team Sigma)

: I found this weird that from all 3 major Marathon forums, only the story
: one get spam, that is strange, to me, it look like someone have a grudge
: against us for some strange reasons.

And once again I have to raise the issue of requiring registration. The spammers target us because we're an open forum. Sure, it's easy enough to register, but just as the auto thief passes on the car with a club on the steering wheel to go for the easier target, spammers will likely leave us alone if we require them to register before posting. Why is it that the admins are so opposed to requiring registration? It's simple and quick and makes it harder for the spam bots to attack us.
