Hey all. This is just a FYI to let everyone know that I updated the
introduction on the start page. We've been getting a bunch of spam
lately, and even changing the setting to approved membership didn't
help, because spammers are sneaky. So I added that new members
(naturally this won't affect those already accepted) have to answer
a couple of questions so that we know they're real people. Of
course, this isn't foolproof, as some spammers seem to be regular
people, but hopefully it will weed out a few of them.

Anyway, I'll copy-paste the new message below, if anyone's
interested.

Thank you for your time. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ATTENTION NEW MEMBERS!

Due to the increasing amount of spam messages we've had lately,
we've decided to jump on the Approved Membership wagon.

To weed out the sneaky spambots, we ask you to answer these two
questions when you apply (so that we know you're a real person):

1. How did you find this group?
2. What is your favorite TOQ role?

If you don't answer these questions, we will assume that you're a
spam robot and your membership request will be denied!

As for this forum... Don't be rude or crude, and respect others'
opinions. Behave. We're trying to maintain a friendly community, and
while friendly discussions, debates and praise are very welcome,
flaming and trolling isn't.
Rant, rave, have fun!

Please note: We have absolutely NO connection to Mr. O'Quinn, his
family,
friends, or any of his representatives. We're just avid fans.

Yah. I hope they go to a special hell. I just don't see the point, because it really can't pay off that well, can it? Are people stupid enough to fall for...
