Enable account activation = Manual by ADMIN only
(For security reasons I felt the need to do this)

Maximum smilies per post = 5
(5 smilies should be enough right?)

The only problem I can see with this is roommates who work at BAP sharing an internet connection.  I guess they would have to verify they both work there?  Other than that, it all looks good.

Yes, that could cause a problem.

I just want to avoid what we seen on the previous message board where user x posted and then again as user y and z saying we agree with you 100% user x.

Twisted Evil  Not the kind of stuff I want to see happen here.
