That username is already in use or does not meet the administrator's standards.
 

Hey Guy's,

I have a major problem. I have been receiving emails non-stop about new users trying to register, and they cant register any user name they try. They all get the same message.

One guy tried 50 different once...

I've even tried random once, I keep getting this message:

That username is already in use or does not meet the administrator's standards. If you are testing_user and you have forgotten your password, click here.

The registration link is: http://www.torontostreets.ca/forum/r...hp?do=register

Can it be something in my permission settings?... About 4 months ago I had a major spam problem, I had my hands full with all the posts and registrations the spammers were causing.

I can't remember what I've altered. I only remember I've set: Akismet in the Spam Management bar, and entered the key I got from wordpress.

Any suggestion and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

-Alex

I've removed "preg_match" from the User Registration Options, it seems to work now. But I don't know if it was wize or not, can someone let me know...
