Memberlist pruned this morning!

Can I remind everyone that they click on member profiles at their own risk. While the "dodgy" ones can't post without moderation, any information they've entered into their profile is still visible, including any web addressess which could lead to unsavoury material (including pornographic and / or virus infected websites).

You know what curiosity did to the cat! If the member's username is stupid and the member has 0 posts, it's highly likely they're dodgy and you shouldn't click on their web links. They will be pruned in the next round of pruning.....

Memberlist pruned this morning (188 removed)!

I've also changed the anti-spam measures to use Google's ReCAPTCHA - time will tell if this cuts down the spammers....
