While it would probably address the problem of spam accounts, I agree with Thor. I think it would hurt the community in general.

I think it is time for AK to turn on email verification for new accounts. Picture verification would be a good option too. The spam that is hitting is all automated, you just need a process that will defeat the bots.

Yea I know. But there has to be a simple solution to this. What if it was a dollar for base members? And if it was still spam? We could close there account and the site could make money off them.
