Japan-A-Radio Forums Update

Over the last couple of weeks, we have seen a huge amount of "spambots" registering on the forums. The method of image verification we were using had been broken and compromised. All forums that use this same verification are having the same issue. We have changed our image verification system to one that (hopefully) has not been compromised. This got my attention quickly when a spammer decided to register and immediately post porn spam on our forums. The spam was probably only seen by either me, or 1 other registered member, if any at all, as I caught it very quickly.

Just to let you know that in case you aren't aware, spamming of any type on this forum is NOT allowed. Do not push your products, website, or services on this forum without written permission from Japan-A-Radio. Any user found to do this, will be dealt with in this fashion:

1st Offense: User's post modified to remove the spam with a public comment in said topic/post.
2nd Offense: See above, AND, PM Sent to the user, posting access removed until the user agrees to not do it again.
3rd Offense: User is banned and deleted from the forums.

What IS okay:

Your personal site, personal fan site, or any site created by you for the purposes of personal use only with images in your signature and/or profile.
Posting links to any video service to a video if it is relevant to the topic and is not an ad for any type of service.

What is NOT okay:

Posting a site that is or is not created by you for the purposes of commercial business or services in your post, signature, profile, or anywhere else.
Posting any type of illegal material, or Porn, or anything we deem here to be offensive to other users in your post, signature, or anywhere else.

Thanks for helping to keep this community a clean place for people to come to talk.
