registration

Hi folks, I'm wondering if you have any suggestions because we're at the end of our rope! The web site I manage has been hit with a flood of new user registrations that are NOT people authentically trying to join our community. Since this started on October 1st, we have been getting approximately 10 new users per hour, 24-7. The IP addresses are almost always unique and the profile information is different each time, sometimes with spammy links, sometimes not.

Hi..

Voidberg and I are giving a second chance to the lazyreg module. Currently there's no such functionality in drupal, and it would be great. For now we have in plan allow the creation of a 'temporary account' to test the site features, and give the user chance to keep it, filling the missing account information, or forget it, just login out the site.

Is there something we are missing or we should consider? do you know of something being implemented about this?

Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to get some feed back from the community so that we can develop a solid event registration system for churches. What are your event registration needs? Below is a brain dump of specifications that I have come up with. Comments? Suggestions? Other requirements? Do you want to highlight the most important/least important things from the list for your church?

Hallo, liebe Gemeinschaft,

I need to find a way to open Drupal 6 up to sms registration. The way I imagine it working is that people can create a Drupal account by sending their name to the application via sms. They then receive an auto reply containing their password and can then visit the site (either directly via a phone or a web browser) and log in using their mobile phone number (instead of an email address) and that password.

It would need to remain possible for people to register in the traditional way with an email address.

What do people think?
