I spent some time this weekend installing a hack/mod that prevents a user from creating an account if he/she went through the registration pages extremely quickly. So far, it seems to be working!

```auto
The following user name with email address was blocked by the Is Bot mod: asianoithatvn - asianoithatvn2011@fene4ek.net (4 seconds transpired)

```

About 10 registrations were blocked in about 5 minutes.
