    I believe vB allows them to be logged in but they can't do anything other than view.
    Get that weak shit off my track

    Actually, they can't even see anything. I think they still show up on the active list because I set the login timeout to be pretty lengthy.
    Whoomah!

    And to think I clicked the report button because you might not have noticed the spam.
    Next bloody thing the forum was full and I couldn't find non spam.

    Admin activation is a good way to stop them from posting, but it doesn't stop them from registering, whereas the custom profile fields (and whatever vB does) stops them from registering.

    Activation is pretty much a backup incase they do get past the antispam stuff, and it means they'll still never be able to post.

    And yeah, checked the Arcade last night and there were 4 and a quarter pages full of spam.

    If anyone has personal friends in Russia or China that want to register, they'll have to contact me directly. .ru and .cn are banned from registering.
    Whoomah!
