Title: New people that join:
Post by: Santa on November 08, 2012, 08:42:26 AM
You must now log-in in-game at least once in order to view and post on the main forum.  We had to implement this to stop the spam bots from taking over the forum.  They will no longer be able to spam up the place, unless they download the client and log-in.  If you are new, and are unable to log-in due to an error, then please post on the first board you see in the forum index called "Technical Help", which only people who have not logged in in-game can see.

It won't really matter if they spam that, because normal people can't see it after they are able to login.

Nahh, the spam bot that just posted was basically an account that was created prior to this being added.  I have grandfathered in all accounts created prior to this to automatically be logged in on the forum.  I may change that to only accounts who have logged in and posted already.
