Well, all I can say is that I feel sorry for people living in that timezone who want to register...

You could've just modified the phrase. I made it phrased so people could have a multi-lingual forum.

Have seen the comments asking why. All I will say is that it works like a charm and solves a big problem with spammers. If you don't have the problem, don't install it. For the rest of us poor souls, thanks for doing this.

Bill

All they have to do is choose another timezone.... It doesn't stop them from registering.

Many thanks for this - my spam problem has virtually disappeared since I installed it. I know it is only a matter of time til the spammers catch up, but for the moment, you are saving me a *whole heap* of time tidying up!

Paul.

Can you provide an option to change the default message user gets when they are banned.
