Due to suspicious activity when new members sign up and dont post..

Dont you think we should have like an email verification thing? an activation thing. So that we have to go to our emails and activate our accounts ?
So that we dont get clogged up..

Erm, not to burst your bubble, but we already do have one. You can't post without activating your account via e-mail.

if they don't verify their email address, doesn't their name still get added to the list of users?
