    Exclamation Attention all new Users - Quick question for you all

    Hello and welcome to VWWatercooled. As some of you I'm sure have noticed, our automatic filters seem to be catching more people than usual lately... so much so that I'm starting to wonder if they are working correctly or not.

    To try and work this out I'm asking new users if they were caught in the filters or not? (If you don't know what I'm talking about, you were not, if you were you needed to send an email confirming you are human).

    So, were you caught up and had to request an unlock??

    yeah stopped me when i signed up, although i was in the Netherlands at the time, so might have had something to do with it?

    Hey Aaron,

    I don't recall having to send an email. Just having to post in the newbies section. Which is a good thing really because if I sent an email telling you I'm human I'd have been lying and since my Cyborg programing forbids me from such an action I would have emailed to say I was in fact a robot.

    Phew thats lucky

    Yeah... 12 months ago it probably wasn't an issue, hence the call out to new users

    Yeah I got caught up in it. Said I needed to get checked out because of spam or something like that.

    Yeap, but my name is rather unconventional if that's a factor considered to determine spambot signups.
