RE: Introduction threads?

They're all bots Cry

If it was a youtube, blogspot, or even that odd Michel Kor's links, you should be alright (maybe) but run a virus/malware scan to make sure.

We're doing our best to contain these bots, but they pop up every few minutes Sweat

I can't even drive home in peace and not worry about one showing up -.-...

I've had some fun reporting the bots. Its amusing. Evil

Might I suggest figuring out some way to check if the people signing up are human? :3 (something simple, yet painfully obvious to us humans. Maybe change it up and/or require email activation)

There's now a capcha at the registration, but we've still had lots of sign up that aren't ro players. Hopefully it will help somewhat anyway.
