Earlier this month I got hit with a flood of spammer registrations, so I had to change the registration process to require manual approval. After registering, please send a message to the email address above to request approval. Please mention which apps you use, and specify the email address you registered with if it's different from the one you are emailing from.

After eight months, I am still getting several registrations a day from spammers, but none have gotten through this manual approval process. So it remains a necessary inconvenience.

Five years later, and spam registrations now number in the hundreds per day. But not one spammer has sent a manual approval request, so this method still works.
