Hey everyone, I'm all for opening up registration for new posters, but can you refrain from posting in bot threads to limit work for us?

So posting in bot threads makes the lives of mods more difficult?

Feel free to close registration. It's no extra work for me, but it still annoys me to no end to see all this crap.

The mods have to keep it open from time to time or GRB will get stale in the clubhouse and die.

Somebodies gotta fill Leroy's spot. We can't replace him, but we can honor his memory by adding about 30 good posters in his stead.

This is good.
I like AD's idea in the site/support forum, where you have a mandatory mod approval for your first or first few posts. That way the mods can immediately see if a bot is posting and their new threads or random post bumps won't go through.
