Hello everyone  :)

Some changes have been made to our forum registration process.

1. To cut down on spam, we now have a security challenge. The question is always the same. It will ask you to spell out a one-digit number, in uppercase letters. It's simple. In case your wondering, this presents a challenge to spam bots. And most spam bots can't get passed this challenge question.

2. The COPPA screen has been removed. It's unnecessary to restrict access to our forum, to users under the age of 13. Besides.. no one ever did fax us for permission in the first place. It's a waste of time, and serves no purpose.

3. Facebook Connect is now working, and allowing registration. Now members of Facebook can link their accounts to Reloaded, which allows for simple new member registration.

Hopefully the first update will help prevent bots, and the second update will help speed up the process. The third update will make registering on Reloaded even easier.

:thumbsup:
