Yup, I was going to suggest this but, as you too I imagine, I personally hate it as it really puts people off coming back or even joining in the first place. Lets hope it doesn't come to that. The other way I've seen on forums is that users don't get the authentication e-mail until an admin has looked over the profile setup. But this could lead to innocent people not being granted access.

Good work though Max! Nothing like a bit of eliminating after breakfast.
