I have changed the registration system a little. Hopefully this will cut down the spammers. I also hope it doesn't cause any problems ???

bots/spammers usually look for holes in forum software, PHPBB is bad for it, now Joomla is the flavor of the month they search the net for them.

The only real way is to write your own code to suit
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
