In order to continue the forum, we've decided to moderate all new posts and threads. This will significantly reduce the amount of fake users on the forum, and also allow us to keep this running. Hopefully all the settings are correct. BUT, if you are a user and are pending and have not been approved, you can feel free to email us directly at operations @ waylandproductions d0t com. (We have written it this way to curb spam)

This also includes blog post replies, User DM is now set to 0 for Moderated Members. If you see any other spaces where spam is creeping in, let me know.

Moderators. Once a user posts for the first time, and is approved, then they will automatically be placed into the "Approved User" group. WARNING! Only approved good posts, as we don't want any spammers getting through.

Just tested and it works! Once a post is approved, every hour when the "promotion" task runs, it will move the user to the approved group. So Moderators, if you see a good post and approve it, the user will then get full normal user access.
