That's the trouble with an open forum you dont have to be in the game to actualy register. All you you need is an Email addy maybe Emi should make it so only game members can access this site. Then have a seperate page for non members to check out a bit like the guide but with game members comments on the game.

true. But you have to have an email to register with the forum, as well as do a conformation email thing. But all that can be done by a bot, he needs one of those things with an image that has letters you have to type in to confirm, those always work, because bots can't see the images.

it may not be a guy, it may be a bot. Bots are smart enough to do this sort of thing. Just be happy they aren't going on an advertisement posting rampage.

what would probly be best is for the forum to actually be integrated in the game, where whoever you are logged in as ingame, you cna go to the forums and post, instead of having ot log i nserperately...

There are spam bots in the game too. I saw quite a few when the round was reset.
