I've been using this mod (note: v3.6 version) for a long time and it's been great !!! :up:

Thanks for the work Ted... much appreciated ...

I had a question and I just wanted to make sure I've always understood what's happening with this mod ...

A "guest" reads posts on the site up to the limit of what I've set. He gets the warning message and finally the "blocking" message telling him should register.

I get a lot of people who the register, which changes their status to the group "Awaiting Email Validation". I notice that people sit for a long time at that group level, but never validate their emails and in fact, a lot of the time the emails they've provided are invalid. I usually purge this group for anyone over 10 days who hasn't validated their emails.

Am I correct in assuming that they do this so they can continue to read the forums using Ted's mod designed for guests and by registering and staying in the p "Awaiting Email Validation" status they circumvent the restrictions of it?

If so, is there anyplace I can add this group ID so they get treated like guests until they actually complete the registration process and validate their emails?

Thanks for and feedback and best wished to everyone for a happy, safe and prosperous new year ... :up:

Badger
