A guest spammer decided to advertise for escort services on the board today. As a consequence, I've disabled guest posting, at least for the time being.
WoW gold is one thing, as obnoxious as it is. But seriously, escorts? WTF?

A while ago (maybe 2 months) I deleted a few posts worth of Miami Escort Services in some pretty random boards (sub-boards for Soul Shadow). Disabling guest-posting shouldn't really be an issue, since after all the only guests we get are spam bots.

*sigh*
I've reenabled guest posting, because the board handles it stupidly. By disabling guests, they would need to log in in order to even see the forum, which is pointless.
I guess we'll have to grin and bear this nonsense, unless someone has a better idea.

It's possible to assign each board manually so that guests can see it, but that only members (or certain member ranks) can actually post. Supposedly.

I couldn't find the right function, then; see if you can figure this one out.

Should be fixed. Unfortunately, the unnamed board had to be given a proper name in order to edit it =/

I erase that crap on sight, I assume Nick does as well. We get little enough traffic as is, the last thing we need is a half-dozen of our most recent posts to be ads for WoW gold or an escort service.
