:: If you look at the block log, you will see that I (and GeorgDerReisende) don't really block randomly. I admit that there is a chance that we may accidentally block a bona-fide user and MaxHeiliger was borderline. Strasdaz007 and FelixAkk clearly fit the pattern of the spammers we have to cope with at the moment. If someone's really real, they will email, as MaxHeiliger, Strazdas007 and FelixAkk have done (and some other girl a while ago). Given that ever spammer can read what you wrote above (unlikely, but not impossible), better, IMHO, safe than sorry. If you look at the list of active (genuine) users, there are virtually none with numbers in their usernames, or more than one capital letter, so anyone who creates a username with both of these characteristics is quite likely some bot following a programmed rule.

::: I don't really agree with 'better safe than sorry', especially since we had hardly any spam (or even none at all?) recently. I made the restrictions a little more lose now, let's see if that brings the spammers back. If not, we can just stop banning users before they posted spam. At least now everyone should be able to post again. We'll see. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]]<sup>([[User_talk:MrTweek|talk]])</sup> 03:35, 28 October 2012 (CET)
:::: Hey, I've got numbers and several capital letters in my user name and I'm not a spammer ;) [[User:QuéSéYo2|QuéSéYo2]] ([[User talk:QuéSéYo2|talk]]) 12:46, 28 October 2012 (CET)
