Last month the forum got over 900,000 page views. While the growth is nice, I'm having to ban several new members a day. They're being too disruptive.
I've decided to try something new. Registration will only be open one day every month (on the first). It will weed out those who are not committed to being a member of our community. I think the quality of content we have is high, so we can take a chance and limit the number of new guys coming in.
I just see a real threat to the forum because of these subtle trolls who have different belief systems. Let's try it out for a couple months and see how it goes. I don't want this to turn into an elitist forum, but something has to be done.
