Re: [IRCA] Testing ease of functionality - long logs and soundbytes

Not sure what you were doing to avoid spammers but asking for the following information irked me:


   - address

    - phone number

    - date of birth

    - web site


Surely you can think of something to avoid spammers that doesn't involve personal information.
