It's real, but I don't know how much good it is. I remember this old thread, there are a few others as well: CobraCountry.com and CobraRegistry.com join forces!

I admin a small forum site, and send out the same type of "real or bot" type of e-mail to new registrations. I first determine where they are from. We get a lot of registrations from China and Eastern Europe, and I delete those immediately. Don't be offended. Spammers are everywhere. I'm surprised this site doesn't get hit more often.

This site does get hit all the time. It's just that when it does happen, a member normally sees it, notifies a mod and then the offender is gone. I’ve sent a few notifications to CW on this site and no kidding, within minutes the doucher was outa there. I once tried to join a Saleen owners site (I've owned several) which wouldn't take my yahoo email addy. I said "laters" and never went back. The point is; it's a personality thing from whoever is running the show. If I get the feeling that I don't want to be there because the owner came off like a self-important douche, then I'm not going to be back.
