someone obviuosly doesn't like halomods. probably someone who loves halo 2 and thinks that the hackers on live find their stuff here. I wish people would recognize the fact that we don't mod to cheat, it's to enritch the game for ourselves. i forget, does the creation of a username require one of those picture box validations where it has a word and you have to type it in a box? that would at least prevent someone from making a script that created usernames.

oh sorry guys i've been experimenting with a script that does stuff like that i bet it's been causing all the lagg cause i tried it out here.....NOT :lol:. lol Had you going for a while but ya i've been getting this lag too,occasionally. i think it's from an overload of members. 50% of the registered usernames havnt even posted once yet they have been registered for months,even years. Admins should delete usernames that have been registered for 3 weeks or longer with 0 posts.

EDIT: W O W!! i just checked the memberlist and holy haxorz some guy has been using a script to create hundreds,probably thousands of Bullshit names with 0 posts. im pretty sure hes using a script cause it's totally and unhumanly random like Feehf2455485g45df4caik:L could be one of them. sorry guys but halomods has been haxed!! (sorta) anyways we really really need to get admins in there to delete those wonky long and pointless usernames cause i can already see the lagg is going up.

Yeah, that might be an idea... they should add that. Now.

Only if one of them were to post or to go on the website would it be possible to grab there IP (well at least with my permissions).

I would assume these 5,000 accounts were all created automatically with a bot (either that or someone just wasted a week trying to be a loser).

Why don't you just turn on that code thing during activation? It displays a number that you must type in during registration, to prevent automatic registration.
