A Change to User Registration
S. Espoire:
***but when the user first register.. how will you know if that person is going to be a forum trasher? they can change their nicks when registering..***
I was wondering the very same thing. and yes I do thing its a good idea.
Sayora Chan:
I also fully support this new idea. I have seen too many forums where people join just to make trouble. I suppose that as a way to regulate it, the IPs of troublemakers could be recorded. It might be troublesome, but a ban list for bad IPs could be started. I hope my idea is helpful. :keke:

We have sources/ways to find that out. :D

Most users' IPs are dynamic so having a ban list wouldn't be really that helpful but thanks anyway for the concern. The mods and admins are doing their best to keep the forum in order. :)

As an admin for another SMF board, I pretty much know what Little Wolf means by "sources" but I'm not at liberty to divulge that information, sorry...  :D
That is, of course, if the "type of sources" he's talking about is what I'm thinking... I might just be wrong completely :heh:
But, I support this all the way... keep those types off the board and this board will remain very fun :keke:

I think this is for the best
