paijo123 linalistiana8@gmail.com 30 180.246.107.8 farid lailisa06@gmail.com 24 180.246.107.8 I was suspicious that these applicants signed on for approval from a common IP address. They were both young and hadn't come to us via a "Guest" posting. The "where is" search showed that the IP address was from from Indonesia. Hmmmm. A search of stopforumspam.com has an extensive history of spam involvement by this IP (in excess of 500 bannings.)

I have temporarily banned newest member "lewisd" as his server is 117.202.113.208 which is at New Delhi, India.
His nickname and e-mail name seemed to bear no correlation.
Most of our members have IP addresses from the US or the Philippines, and thus the unfamiliar server address caught my eye.
Lest I be wrong, I have written to his given e-mail address and asked him to advise what his area of interest is, so as to establish that he is human.
If he has anything to say, he can initially use the Guest Board.
P.S. I wasn't wrong - he posted some spam and Fots2 shot him down.

You're quick EXO, but they keep trying. <G> It's like Whack a Mole, they just keep popping up. I finally had to shut down the comments on my blog.

Whack-a-Mole, probably the best description yet!
Fortunately, I have assistance from Fots2 who also has a fully authorized hammer.
