Well it for the best, plus you're now blocking most forum SPAM bots, too.

Perhaps it might be a good idea to let anyone read the forum (which I found I couldn't do 'till I logged in) but only allow those registered and logged in to post?
And, yes, True, can't say I'll miss the spambots... ;-)

I was just thinking "this is why you have to register to post on most forums" when I saw his post earlier. Now I come back and I see that it really happened. It's sad really, because regular guests can just post their support or problems easily but also other can just spam just as easily also.

Unfortunately proboards does not support that... its all or nothing... which is why I was trying to avoid enabling it in the first place.

It's just a shame that people won't be able to access the support forum unless they register. I was enjoying just keeping an eye on things, and seeing what was new. Oh well, I was bound to register sometime. Kickass emulator by the way.

I was going to suggest this move anyway. Trolls are annoying to deal with.

You have amba/DarkKnight to thank for this... I don't blame you that guy was being a dink. Well great emu - Thanks for all your work - i'm sure it must be frustrating at times. Was amba/darknight the same person?

I do believe so... I recall pSX Author warning one of the two that he could see his IP, and that he was the same person...

well, I think it was the right thing to do, I finally took the time to register and all ;D I'd never register while I could post as a guest (posted two times I think, with this same nick)... That guy was really being a assh*le indeed... and, yes they were the same person. Anyway it's a shame you have to do login just to enter and read the forums, but like said above there's no way around it... Great emulator by the way
