Am I missing something?

There has been a lot more spam the last few days.
Maybe there is some way you could limit the posting of new members untill they prove to be members of the PV community.

I changed the user activation from user level to admin level. That means more work for me, but maybe less work if I am not deleting as much spam.

It also means new members will have to wait longer to be able to post.
