Due to some recent spam posts by guest accounts. I have disabled guest posting everywhere but General (and that will be banned too if there continue to be a great number of spam posts there). I hate spam bots, and see no reason why this has to be.. but, whatever.. those script kiddies just made it so anyone wanting help will have to register an account.

Though, I prefer registered users anyway, as that makes for a better community.  :D Sorry if this prevents anyone from posting, but I do not have time to watch out for spam bots. I have taken other measures also. Though, it is not so bad, because I still do not require e-mail activation of accounts.

Well, due to more recent spam activities.. I have disabled guest posting to all topics. Now, I can not be entirely sure of the nature of the posts (if they were in fact spam).. But, posts which contribute nothing, are vague, non descriptive, and appear to be spam will be deleted instantly.. Especially if the user ID is a guest.

This forum does not need to succumb to spam, and is meant to be a good resource on wreckedgame's plugins/libs and other topics. And I intend to keep it that way.
