Registering: additional question

[Hanno Spoelstra]

When signing up, some prospective members stumble over the additional question:

One should fill in “6” in this field.

The field is pre-populated to throw the spam bots off the right track. There are many spammers who have automated the sign-up process to enter forums and then post their spam. Apologies for making the sign up process a little difficult, but the spammers are a royal PITA....

If anyone keeps having trouble, please send us an email, and we'll sign you up manually.

Thanks,
