Technical Inquiry About MyBB Forums
#3
IIRC, the forum now asks any new user a few questions about the OA main page (mental note: we will need to update that when we finally replace the OA home page) as a condition of applying for membership. We also manually approve all new applications and use the Stop Forum Spam webpage:

http://www.stopforumspam.com/

to run a check on their IP Address (which you can access from the forum Admin screens) before approving the application.

Taken together, it seems to be working pretty well, after a bit of fine tuning.

Graham hasn't really been active on the forum lately, but you could probably reach out to him directly via PM or the like and he might be able to provide more specific details about exactly what he set up on the forum side.

Hope this helps,

Todd
