MR ADMIN-
IS THERE GOING TO BE A WAY FOR THE ADMINISTRATOR TO APPROVE NEW MEMBERS PRIOR TO THEM JOINING LIKE THEY HAVE ON OTHER FORUM? THIS WOULD BE A VERY USEFUL TOOL FOR ALOT OF ADMINISTRATORS, AND ELIMINATE ALOT OF HEADACHES Very Happy OH PLEASE SAY IT IS COMING IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE! Idea

You can do this by setting the "Enable account activation" to Admin, thus all new members must be verified by you.

Unfortunately there is no way of stopping them completely it would seem. I have severeal people who have attempted to rejoin. Now I have no intention of activating them, but they still appear as members (even though they cannot access the board).

This is rather annoying as the only way to stop them is to delte them again (in which case they'll just attempt to rejoin AGAIN! Rolling Eyes )

Basically I want rid of all the zero posting wasters, but they appear on my member list even when inactive Evil or Very Mad

If you don't want them to rejoin, you can ban them. But since they want to rejoin you can let them, and tell them taht tehyw ill get banned if all they do is lurk.

Also if you don't want a member around full stop, (due to hassle etc) you can bann their isp, that way they won't even be able to see the forum.

Why wouldn't you want new members Cyber? And yep you only get their IP if they post, or through the admin panel when they are online. Wink
