[QUOTE="sciicers, post: 47108, member: 9255"]Look at the Tables section[/QUOTE]



Huh ? Link me? I don't see it.



If you're talking about way earlier in the day, i took care of that like 12 hours ago. Don't see any new ones now and i went through all threads in tables section.



Anyway, i didn't like the new members not requiring approval and having so many permissions already. I will change that.



[USER=12587]@SunBeam[/USER] Not sure what you mean? What's the other problem?.

I have the RSS feed, and it was full of chinese, I copied and pasted parts of it into Google Translate, it was about how to obtain Fake Diplomas from Canada.



Just Registered today, after years of lurking.



Keep up the good work.

Seems to be affecting a lot of other sites as well. I can't tell if it's automated but i know the pattern of usernames and IPs now (removed a bunch of them).



If it's automated, i don't know how they're getting past Google's recaptcha - it has been really good. Shouldn't happen again - at least from new users, all registrations are now manual requiring approval by me.

Might be something wrong with your system, I just logged in with Username / Password, no captcha in sight.
