We now have IPB hooked up to Stop Forum Spam to stop spammer registration. Let's see how this works out

I think it's working out pretty well. As of now, it already blocked 41 spammers (Look at board stats at the bottom of the board). I checked the logs and they're all correct blocks

A few got through, but I don't think it's a serious problem right now. It's awesome

Imagine that 1599 spammers (As of now) made it through. We'll have serious issues.
