It says that I need to approve 352 members on here, and half of them are most likely spambots.

Yes I havent been clearing the list as YES they most likely all spammers........

They cant harm the site now @ least so just letting the list get bigger and bigger isnt a problem... (But if there IS a legit register,that wouldnt be good)

Looks like a good majority of the members pending approval are now gone. Are any of them at least legit members though?

Ya MA I check google and whatnot when Im going thru to see if they are listed and most are.....

Most have spam reports,etc.......  What I just do is mostly looking for members ristering from our original site..... I have seen a couple and automatically approved them...... (I know they arent a problem)
