olyclimber Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 They just keep coming...so until I figure out an effective method registrations will be manually approved. Unfortunately the hCaptcha isn't working right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 There is a chance I over did it with the ban hammer. If you are a real human and want to use the site let me know via the contact feature at the bottom of the site. Tell some basic info that proves you are not a spammer and what the user ID you registered with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
