a 14 day cooling off period after registering.
Is a very good idea full stop!It's in place for SP&L and The Lounge, why not enforce it across the full board?

A good start but, as Ali Kat says, why not leave it in place permanently?
Its not as easy as that i'm afraid and i'm not a techie myself, but basically this status prevents any new member until we refresh the 'Trustee Status' manually. It is the most effective way of preventing the spamming email from appearing.The attacks are quite short and concentrated so we usually go back down to 'defcom 4' after a short time.
The team regularly check and adjust the site security settings to ward of other attacks. As a company that holds a vast amount data we have stringent security criteria that we have to meet and maintain.

I have to ensure PCI DSS compliance for our tens of millions of customers, so I appreciate the efforts.

The short term cooling off period doesn't seem to be working. They're back in force this morning.
