Official BRMC Forum....under the Bot Attack

how would do such a thing...

official word on it from Michele:

As many of you noticed, the forum was attacked by bots beginning Friday until a couple hours ago. We had to bring in extra help to stop new accounts from being created and once that was done, I was able to delete all the accounts created from August 31st until today. Before that, all I could do was continue to delete the accounts, but since they were multiplying like crazy, it was a pointless and losing battle.

If you created an account during that time, I apologize, but you will have to sign up once we install some higher security.

I will let everyone know when registration is enabled again.

Thanks to everyone for their patience, and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
