As some of you may have witnessed tonight, some spammers got into the forums and started causing all sorts of ridiculous trouble. To correct this, not only did all that they post get deleted, but their IPs are now blocked, as well their attempts to rejoin the forum are now no longer possible.
In lieu of this, while I do not wish to have to further restrict the forums, to prevent further spamming of the forums, I have enabled an admin validation system to the forums, which will pretty much mean that all new members will have to wait for an admin to authorize them before they are able to join the forum.
I am only doing this as a precautionary, if I do not see it as a necessity, I will likely move to a more free-scale system if possible, for now though, I believe such a system is very necessary.

PS: Thanks by the way spammers, you gave me something to do this evening.
