Forum update and database cleanup

This morning my friend and co-admin Burt operated an update on our board.

Infact we installed the new version of PhpBB board upgradin' it to the version 2.0.22.

In the meanwhile we operated also a clean up on the database: we deleted all the registered users who didn't activate the account till now.

We did theese operations in order to limit the spammer attacks and to have a cleaner database.
Infact many spam bots registered fake users on the site in order to attack it.

After starting the activation method many fake users registered but not activated the accounts.

So we decided to delete all the not activated accounts.

If a user will not find his old account since he didn't activate it he have to register again to the website and then to ask for the activation.

Plus we installed an anti-bot question module for the guest users who asks for activation.

We hope that theese improvements will make the board faster and safer from external attaccks.

Tell us what you think about and if you experience troubles or bugs while using the site.
