We're going to try this for a little while to handle the spam problem. The questions are all really easy.

yes i know as i recieved one lol
but once they stop with spamming the pm they will just do the forum again
carnt you do the option where you have to type your email in and not copy and paste it, i know on some forums that you have to type it in else it doesnt accept it
also, you say the questions are simple, this is the on i just got

Really guys come on this is very easy!
as said by IB:
OK, for the time being new user registrations are moderated. That means that when someone signs up, they go into a queue. If Stu sees anything suspicious about their account, they get the axe. The other thing is that I've just installed a mod that asks a very easy question whenever you send a PM. Any human with a couple of neurons to fire together can answer the questions, but a script that sends spam automatically will have a hard time. The questions are things like: how many cylinders does a Cosworth engine have, who is buried in Grant's tomb, what is two plus five, what color was the white horse of Napoleon, etc.
so really, it isnt that hard!!! trust me it will be worth it!

The answer to "What is the last name of the person who is buried in Grant's tomb?"
The last name of the person who is buried in Grant's tomb is Grant.
I will take out these two questions.

i almost didn't see it tucked away at th ebottom 
but it asked what color (notice the american speeling) napolens white horse was
and the answer was white
and it was correct
and lo, i did send and recive a pm form myself
if that's what it takes to get rid of the spam prom pm's then it's fine and dandy with me, but, as pointed out, some of the questions are a bit americanised for us
but at least things are happening to to the guys who thought of this clever idea

dont forget guys, if you look at the question before you start typing your pm, and you feel you cant answer it, just hit the refresh button and it will kick you out another question!

this is genius, you have to win your pms, weve gone from porn to gambling in one move,
anyone want to swap a couple of pms for some car parts?
ps, you can all put me down as your phone a friend!
