When I check the accounts to be validated, I am continuously deleting spam accounts -- around 50 per day. I apologize if I accidentally delete a real account in the middle of it all. If you try to get registered, and I delete your account, please PM me at DVDVR and I'll know you're legit and will put you through.

Can you add a CAPTCHA image or any other safeguards like "Are you human?" and math problems?

We used to have this problem all the time at the Pit too, getting a couple dozen spams each day. The CAPTCHA would indeed prevent most of it, if the software offers it.
