Steady on Tony, I nearly lost my eyesight

Hi all

Haven't had much chance to keep up with the site for a while, bike stuff has sorta taken a backseat at the moment as the Zed as it's now SORN'd until spring. Started getting notifications each time someone tries to join the site so presumably Al has turned off account auto-activation. Just trawled through about 60 inactive user accounts of which about 5 were possibly genuine...!! Frickin spammers are a waste of oxygen if you ask me....

Hopefully the spam issue should go away now that it requires either me or Al to enable people's accounts (and I don't know how to do it without also changin their passwords!) I'll try and keep up with things a bit more especially over the hols

Take care all

Yeah and therein lies the problem. Deleting bogus/spam user accounts is the easy bit, I can't suss a way to activate new genuine users though without changing their passwords (maybe Al knows a way). When someone creates an account as far as I can see there's no straightforward allow/disallow screen.

I'll PM Al to see if he can shed any light on it. I'm ok with one of you guys having that facility if it's in there somewhere.
