Hmm, when installing mods, I wonder if you broke the Stop Forum Spam mod or the Questions one, because there is an unusually high amount of new registrations since the last 3 days.

Otherwise the only other clue I have is that when Juju purged the old spambot bans to remove potential legit members matches   (most bots will use an IP only once), he removed the wrong ones, such as ubiquity.net, BTI.NET.PH and other hostname-wide bans that were instated on Phillipines/India hosts used for spam. When purging old spambot bans, I usually checked how many hits the ban triggers had and didn't remove the ones that had like 40-50 hits.

Just look at the attachment below: We had 204 new registrations in one day shocked (almost an entire month worth of registrations)

I'm pretty sure it is still working, I've been havibg to reject a couple hundred registrations in the past three days due to flagged ip's and/or emails.

I didn't removed any ban that had more than 3 triggers or were labelled as a group one. Weird.

Could it be that bots found their way through a new hostmask? You guys should check if there are many registrations from the same place and ban that host.

Spoiler for Still Alive:
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Aperture Science:
We do what we must because we can.
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive.

I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart and killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you.

Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta we're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD I got burned think of all the things we learned
For the people who are still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa -
THAT WAS A JOKE. HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great:
It's so delicious and moist.

Look at me still talking when there's science to do.
When I look out there it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run there is research to be done
On the people who are still alive

And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.

Still alive
Still alive

I was just making sure I would have enough other accounts in case of a ban. Tongue
No, j/k. Maybe an Nspire Invasion?

Yeah, not quite sure what it is though since it seems that the stop forum spam is still catching spambots for us. Maybe something linked to us and there are a ton of new ones attacking our site?

I guess it's counting the users caught in the Stop Forum Spam filter. I had like 125 members waiting to be approved at one point.

Yeah it does. There's probably one IP in particular (or a set of IPs) that constantly spams the registration form, though.
