Have you tried searching on Facebook via your Hotmail who it is? If they're on your user list then they should pop up with their real name and profile.

EDIT - Scrap that. Done it for you. He's called Matthew Lowe.

This is his Facebook profile:

http://www.facebook.com/search.php?q=ma ... !/mclaylow

His profile says he's currently based in Peru. If Ryudo can do an IP search for a Peruvian IP adresses then we could whittle it down.

Hello everyone. Yama contacted me a few weeks ago about this issue. At Biohaze, I found a way how to prevent these suckers and I'll work on implementing these tonight and tomorrow. Sorry for the delay but I was on vacations. :mrgreen:

Given the exciting Shenmue 3 news that broke today and with the help of this anti-spam method, I can safely say registrations will be opened tomorrow.

BTW, removed the "thank you, your message has been posted" message after posting on a topic, to make things quicker.

Do you like it this way?
