I am reluctant to make registration more difficult at the moment, so there is chance we might see some spam in the future. I have lots of potential solutions but I kinda want to see how the problem manifests itself before I make new member registration more difficult.

As this forum is pretty much focused on a specific game, you've probably got 95% of the people who are likely to come here already registered. If you make things more tricky to register for spammers, you're probably not going to dissuade real users from signing up.

I honestly hadn't noticed any speed difference. I use RPGNet a lot and that is frequently very slow, so I don't have any complaints
