    I'm glad something is being done to stop some of this activity. I hope it works.

    I'm guessing as well if someone verifies a new user, that is recorded somewhere? So there isn't a current Pinside user who is verifying troll accounts just to cause trouble by proxy.

    Looks like the verification system is already successful.

    The first message board script I used in the 90s didn't even have a login, you just typed your name. Then later things moved to creating a login, then needing an email address, then things moved to clicking a link sent to you by email. Obviously all of those steps were in response to the abuse that was happening. Just the way it goes.

    Quoted from PopBumperPete:

    far out, if 'Broken record' is a moderatorable offense, then many threads should be half as long

    "Broken Record" is one of the worst aspects of pinside. I wish threads were half as long.

    Quoted from Sumer:

    I am hesitant about verifying with PayPal.

    There's no money involved. What are your concerns?

    PS: Welcome to Pinside.

    Quoted from Gatecrasher:

    Am I "verified"?

    Apparently you are

    Quoted from Gatecrasher:

    How did I get "verified"?

    Likely from 4 years on Pinside not acting like a spammer, scammer or troll.
