I personally would rather have it this way, but give us mods that are actually on here full power to clean up the vendor section as well. I don't mind the crap. It gets cleaned up. But taking 2+ months for account approval is not "a little time" as you put it. And it's not like there wasn't already more spam on in the past year or so compared to years ago anyway.
Agreed. If new members cannot join the forum, they will go somewhere that they can easily get approved and start posting. This isn't the only SVX forum, and if you keep sending new members elsewhere due to this problem, this site will die - with or without the spam.

I'm no web expert, but it can't be that difficult when every other forum I join is able to both approve new members quickly and keep out the spam.

And for the record, I'd take the spam over the increased lack of activity due to unapproved new members any day...
