We have just completed an upgrade to the forum which along with new features like the member map, where you can add a pin for you location, more smilies and a few other goodies added on... we have added extra security measures to hide email addresses from email robot scripts.
We have also added a new signup identifaction system which will stop automated signups by people trying to hack the forums.
This will hopefully stop any annoying issues from poping up any more.
