The site is secure. Differentiating between genuine users and spammers is very hard.

@PhilT apologies I didn't articulate my point very well and fully understand the hard work that goes into maintaining a forum it's just recently the "new posts" section has literally been full of spam.
I'm a regular user of M3cutters and very rarely does that an issue so I was just making a comparison.
@Brooner I use the forum most days (albeit only more recently) so certainly not dissing the efforts of the owners / mods.

No hard feelings guys

If it sucks, tell me and I'll try and fix it
