Take a look at the members page if you want a surprise.  Out of roughly 4600 "members" there must be 2,000 or more that  look very suspicious.  It looks as if 10 or more per day are signing up.  The names look familiar, oh I remember, the same ones who keep sending me Viagra adds.   

It must be a big PITA for the site  administrators.

Agee Dave and it has been going on for quite sometime. I visit a few other sights that required joining and there are quite a few hoops to jump through before being accepted into the group. Not sure if it weeds out the undesirables or not but it does appear that way.

Seems suspicious to say the least. I know its been mentioned before but there seems to be a lot of females recently who are interested in the schuetzen game. 

Not that its a bad thing.

I administer a forum for waterfowlers and the Open Range.  Was having a hell of a time with hackers.  Added a software as a mod that has a know data base of hacker ISP's, bots and emails.  The software bans them from logging on ...

I do the per-registered Members every day. 
I run them in a program called STOP FORUM SPAM.
If they pass they become members.
now does this mean no one fall between the crack? No!
But we do check what we can!

Jim,

Thanks for the information.  I think we have very few problems with spammers or whatever these "members" are called.  Yep, no complaints here.   

I know on some other forums there are big problems in the ammo for sale world.   

Thanks,

Dave
