It has come to my attention that there are people who can mass-flood message boards by signing up over and over and over (talk about a nightmare). It wouldn't be too hard to create a php script that would do this and keep looping moving up in numbers signing up on the forums (IE: skuzzy1, skuzzy, skuzzy3, ect.). But... i'm not here to ask how to make this script, i'm here to ask how to prevent against it. Is there some sort of hack that would limit new user sign ups to, say, 1 per minute? I think this should be intergrated into vB 3.0 too...
