Change of membergroups and signatures

[Brian Turner]

The scripts I've set up do a great job of stopping spam getting published on the forums (11 threads started already today - 7 of which are spam).

However, there's another type of forum spamming which involves signing up members just to get paid signature links onto the forum.

There's been an influx of the latter recently, so I've tried to set up a new membergroup - basically, if you've been a member for more than 15 days, you should have few problems using a signature.

However, new members have to wait 15 days before they can use one.

Anyway, just a heads up, and a call for any reports of bugs that may come up - brian @ platinax.co.uk if you need to report anything.
