Installed. I am getting tons of spammers signing up from -12 so I hope this helps!

Thanks for your efforts dismounted.

Excellent Mod. Easy to use and it seems to stop one specific infamous spammer.

Bloody Awesome! Saves me a bunch of time. Let's hope it takes a long time before they catch up on it.

I have a suggestion. How about, instead of telling spammers they need to find the right time zone, instead, if they are in the banned time zones, the registration stops and redirects them back to the forumhome page. Keeps the bots in an endless loop.

I had a similar but different strategy when I implemented this hack, I changed the error message to the same message as a successful registration ;)
