Of course a lot are bots and you can change up the sign up forms to fool the bots and mess them all up..

but increasingly, there are a lot of PAID people that do it manually now.

As I have mine set up so that you HAVE To be sitting at the PC and manually sign up. There is no way a bot can do it.
And I still get a very large number of spammers signing up (of course I have mine set so I have to manually authorize a new account before they can post.. that is harder to do on larger public forums like this).

The best thing we can do, is start shooting them.
That would be a decent deterrent in my opinion.
Can we torture them a while first before the shooting please?
