Please understand - and this goes for everyone - it is not like we like to moderate forums.
We would love to have it all open and easy for everyone to post pics and everything else they want. However, there are very sophisticated bots going on forums right now that can automatically break any automated check during signup.
What happens after that? If it is all left open, we end up with 100 porn threads posted in a minute. And while we moderate forums, and we have our long time users moderate them as well, there is always time in the dead of the night where it takes 2-3 hours for someone to see spam/porn being posted and to delete it. It is 2-3 hours too much for us.
We are only compression company that I know of that have public forums. We dont want to close them because we have to spend hour a day just deleting spam/porn.
It is unfortunate but thats how it is right now when it comes to forums. Whatever automated way there is to detect spam bots, it does not work. Only thing extra we can do is to approve every user or even every post manually and we dont want to cripple forum like that.
