approvals dont really make sense to me, Too much work to verify someone and impossible to tell if someone is legit just based on a sentence or two in the signup form. We used to do approvals and in the end a lot of legit users or users who didnt understand english got rejected meanwhile spam accounts still got through with generic signup messages.

captcha isnt perfect either but I found it to be the better compromise.

@icedquinn @freemo @masstransitkrow Doing that but for that you first ned the domain :blobcatgiggle:

Our list is getting looooong

@icedquinn @freemo @masstransitkrow :blobcatgiggle:​ In this case it's very clear haha! Weird ass domains for email, weird ass usernames, no activity, much same IP, created within sec's of each other.. 🤔 a botnet waiting to happen
