you have thousands of forums, and 14 members?

your forum is just a trap for spammers... that's why.

The solution is very simple

Have the new members answer a question when joing, such as what does amc stand for

You need to stop them. Try the vbStopForumSpam plugin.

That does not work

Think about it people in china won't know the answer to the question.
