Overview
This product allows (and can require) visitors to select a paid subscription at registration time. Be sure to read the license, FAQ's, and notes below!
Anti-Spam
If you disable free registration it is virtually impossible for spam bots to sign up (even with a one-time 49-cent payment). In the case of a human spammer, payment would have to be made to gain access to spam your board. To top it off, you have a Transaction ID which you can take to the payment processor (e.g. PayPal) who has the spammer's address and contact information. At the very minimum, you can contact the authorities and have a solid form of recourse. At best you can pursue legal action. After receiving payment and the registration is complete, you can refund the fee so registration is actually free, yet retain the spam-deterring effects of paid registration!
