Because of the increasing amount of spam I have to delete (not too bad actually). I have disabled guests from posting. They can still view the forum but just can't post. I originally didn't know how to do this but just realized there is a wonderful support forum for Proboards (the people who allow us to have this forum for free but with ads lol). So nothing personal against guest posters, it really isn't that hard to register. All you need is an email. You can even log-in forever so that you don't have to keep loggin in.
Considered taking it to the next step which is preventing guests from viewing forum but won't take it that far yet. I think this should work for now. Also considered making only the "member collections" section member viewing only since there have been some concerns about the security of posting your own collection. Although this is still not completely "safe" i suppose, it does make it a little less scary to have lurkers checking it out. Kinda torn because I'm sure this is also one of the more enjoyable sections to the board although this might encourage more people to put their collections up.
What do you guys think?

Don't know if guests realize this but when you log in there is a handy calendar "events this month" at the bottom that is only visible to members. Here is how it looks like.

I never noticed these features before, thanks for pointing them out.
