Activation of new users - spam registrations then deleting - hopeless system

I got 2 new ones today and all G3 does is tell you to approve them and delete from the user list ... excellent system?

This situation will only get worse ... also mulitple mistaken registrations.

When I tried to activate them the screen did not reload... maybe because of junk email address it was trying to send confirmations to?

It took several attempts and only activated and deleted one at a time - incredibly inefficient way of dealing with unwanted registrations. There should be an option to delete them before activating...just like G2.

Then there is the list of ever growning activated junk and mistakes that cannot be cleaned up yet in Admin.

I think there is a open ticket for a similar issue, have you searched?

No answer for ages! What is going on in this system?

Something similar is happening to me as well although registration settings for my gallery do not require admin approval, only e-mail verification by the user.

I've got a few dodgy looking members listed in "Settings" -> "User registration". They all show up as "Activated". When I delete them via "Users/Groups", they disappear from the members list there, but are still listed under "Settings" -> "User registration" and I can't get rid of them there.

toner2ink,
html_wrap has nothing to do with G3 and code from G2 is not compatible with G3.

toner2ink was a spammer. A cleaver one too, but still a spammer, hiding a link to his site in a post he stole from another thread.

There`s a ugly way. Editing database.

Is it so hard to code check boxes and remove selected button? This is really frustrating me.
