The forums are currently under heavy spammer attack by several annoyers. Of course I could just change the settings so that only registered users can post, but I really prefer the openness.

And so I am fighting those annoying idiots by other means. This is taking quite a lot of my time though, so maybe I will have to make posting a member-only feature in the end anyway. I'll decide in a couple of weeks I think.

Feel free to share your thoughts on this subject!

PS if you get topic subscription mails with links to non-existing replies, it's probably because the replies were spam and I had to delete them...

Sorry, I really liked the openness, but since the forums were getting bombarded by spam, you have to be a registered user now to post messages. I was spending about an hour per day lately just to remove the spams, which is not my idea of fun...

The good news: registering is free and you only have to log in once per year :-)
