I have a forum which is growing like a weed in terms of member base, it goes up by over 100 people per day, however they are not posting.
They just join and never do anything, I really want to get rid of this because it makes my site look bad with all these non posting members.
Is my forum on a spam list or something?

100 people per day :eek::eek::eek:
Do a google on some of the usernames could be spambots, Do a search of the IP addy and find where they are coming from
Post a link to your site and we might be able to advise.

You may want to have a think about why they are joining. Are you restricting content to members only, etc.?

Nope, I do have no links till you reach 10 posts mod (keeps away spammers) but thats it.
