And the neat thing is that it's easy to filter out the requests if you don't like seeing them; the developer gets to choose what he sees, instead of it being chosen for him. :-)

I wouldn't mind seeing the valid ones, but I think I've only seen about two reasonable requests out of the whole lot...

And that's the point: see all the junk will drive us to implement more automation on the front end. Someone had the wonderful idea of mimicking the PHP signup form, with checkboxes for "why you need an account" that have to be all unchecked before the process is complete. Whose idea was that? Is there a status on implementing it? (Yes, I know it takes time; not whining, just curious. :-)

That would be a great idea. It's a shame that this is a necessary step. Don't people read any more? Regards, David
