I see in many threads that many problems main cause is uppercase problem in signup process.
Maybe i can help to minimize the problem with a little javascript.

Quote
<script type="text/javascript">

function nocaps(){
original = document.formname.inputname.value;
nocaps = original.toLowerCase();
document.formname.inputname.value = nocaps;}

</script>

<form name="formname" method="get">
<input type="text" name="inputname" value="TEXSTAERERASODHAIOSGUDAISUDGIASUDASIOUDGAS">
<input type="submit" onClick="nocaps()">
</form>

although in the input is still uppercase, but it sended with lowercase.
I think this script not so perfect, so change it to your way.

Having upper case not work helps us weed out a lot of abuse. Most abuse/warez accounts use automatic creating scripts and don't get to go to the page itself. It also weeds out the people who don't read, and if they didn't read one line of bold text, they definitly didn't read the TOS and will probobly wind up violating it. Thanks for the script though.

If you have the problem because the automatic creating script, why don't just use the php script, like the md5 system ?

md5 is just a form of encryption and would do nothing to stop bots from doing registrations.

Well couldn't T35 just get a Bot Blocker that blocks the bot's IP?

Here is one I was looking at: http://www.multiblocker.com/home.html

Here is the description of it:

The most powerful professional ip blocker, site blocker, spam, fraud and snoop protector: blocks predefined IPs, UserAgents and Hosts from accessing your web pages.
------------------------------------------------------------------

I'll see if I can find something better...
