ok, seems a scammer signed up to the forums and sent a number of members messages today.
As you all know, spammers, scammers, etc are as welcome here as a bad rash.. so he's been deleted. Just disregard any messages receieved from him, he doesn't live in the Ivory Coast and he doesn't have $10m!

no verification image, can't be bothered writing one into the forum when I have so many other things to do. There will likely be one in future developments though.

Can't you just do a simple one like with one image and one code, then just compare it. You know it's funny, most of the time i can't tell what those images even say XD.

me neither. problem is they don't say what characters there are. I've had problems with ones that are case sensitive, so in a scrambled image, how do you tell the difference between a small 'v' and a captical 'V'? or between 'o', 'O' and '0'?
I just don't like them, so don't want to use them unless totally necessary.

Point taken. A Number one would be fine though. No harm in a bit of extra security on signup.

Telemarketers are a pain. I like to press # and * while they call and pretend i can't understand them.

He said once someone trying to sell him new papers asked for his parents credit card details and he said no.
