Sysop Registration
Hi,
I have been contacted by an MBBS sysop from ye olde days who would like to join this forum - but the registration process seems to be disabled.
Is there a solution?
Cheers!

create an account on your system and their email code that validated their account can also be used to activate their forum account as i can have
an XML file created that can be accessed by phpbb yourdomain/arcverif/arcverif.xml
or code that feature in altogether, create forum account, have code emailed to ya, enter code for access, and also put like a 48 hour silence on all new accounts that gives em 2 days to browse all the threads get to know who is who by reading and then they can post, most spammers create and post they dont come back.
i would love to have a shared accounting system that would cross between the forums, worldgroup nt demo system, worldgroup 2 demo system, and a master ftp site archive, but thats just wishful thinking.

I don't suppose you ever got Vircom's RADIUS server did you? Sounds like right up that alley from back in the day.

we need to upgrade to phpbb4 while we're at it, or maybe go to vbulletin.VeNoM wrote:I know im late to the party but...
You know that phpbb has a ton of anti-spam captcha modules, right? I ran a phpbb along with my bbs, and had a ton of spam. i eliminated most of it with some decent captcha modules.
