We've been having a spam problem lately from guests. I know there's numerous legitimate guest posters so rather than disable guest accounts I've added an extra step each time a guest posts.

It's very simple. When you post you'll see a "Submit post?" combo box. Simply choose the "Yes" option. If you forget and leave it set to "No" you will not lose your post.

Hopefully this will thwart the spammers and not inconvenience our guest users.
