Forum Update - new spam blocking system, new social media options & more

[overscan (PaulMM)]

Minor tweaks made to forum.

Added extra social media links to user profiles - Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Youtube, DeviantArt, Pinterest.

New anti-spammer system implemented. Also new users' first post must be approved before it is visible - this should prevent all but the most dedicated spammer. One the first post is approved, the user is able to post normally.

Continued speed tweaks, forum is now significantly faster than ever before here in New Zealand.

Paul,

Historically, this is one of the fastest running forums that I read. And that's going back a few years. Also has the least software problems / annoying features.

And the content has a lot less garbage mixed in than many, many places.

Thank you.


Regards,
Gerard
