The guys IP traced back to the US which is the main thing I look at before turning on their membership.

It's a really easy, 2 click process to delete the account and all of their posts so as long as it's not a regular thing, it's no big deal. I have about 15 new account requests a day and 90% of them are from out of the US. I just delete them.
