I've been on this forum for a good time now and theirs so many people who make random accounts and make random thread posts on advertisements which have nothing to do with manacube/minevast at all. I suggest that Staff add a feature to make it check someone's minecraft username to sign up. This would stop random accounts and hopefully advertisements.

I used to be senior moderator, and everynight I would wipe around ten spam posts off the forums. I talked with dacon and other members of the staff team about possible solutions to this; it’s a lot more complicated than it seems, mainly because of how XenForo works. Many solutions were tried - none seemed to work effectively. I believe in order to subvert this problem XenForo would have to be thrown out of the window - a possibility I’m afraid is unlikely.
