As always manually verifying is time consuming and almost nobody wants to do it but in the case of Lazarus/FPC the number of users is not that large.
i forgot to add to my previous post that we also do this... new users sign up and validate via email and confirmation... then their initial posts are moderated until X number of valid ones...
one can also easily find the automated bots trying to stuff the get/post vars because they rarely simply get all of the forms in the proper sequence... this is one of the basic tenets of my IDS/IPS rules sets for this particular activity...
