    Probably Sunday mornings around 10am or whatever. Not right at midnight.
    Have you considered my reCAPTCHA suggestion? Easy/free to implement, and if non-human spammers get past that I will eat my hat.

    Because InsideHoops is the greatest message board in the history of civilization, tons of spambots try to join, and often get past the spam filters or whatever. Until we find a way to permanently stop it, we'll open registration for a day or two per week, then the person has to send us an email mentioning their username, and then we confirm it and delete the rest.

    It's a lot more work for us, but oh well

    If anyone knows what this guy is talking about (if anything), private-message me. I will keep it private. And I'd appreciate it.
