mmmm... very very bad !!<br>

Registration with username and password is ELEMENTARY and does not require any<br>

<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
>From a list of 474 dxspider nodes, accessing each node I have obtained this data:<br>
<br>
252 Active<br>
    3 Unknown version<br>
219 Inactive or with login error<br>
<br>
175 are on 1.57 Mojo<br>
  77 are on 1.55 Master<br>
<br>
182 have no Password Registration:          116 Mojo + 66 Master<br>
  70 have Password Registration enabled:   59 Mojo + 11 Master<br>
<br>
About 30% of DXSpider nodes have taken the commitment to stop spam😊 Congratulations to them.<br>
<br>
I estimate that there are about 70 nodes missing which I don't have connection data for, but which I can see as a result:<br>
<br>
196 nodes in Mojo<br>
127 nodes in Master<br>
<br>
There are still too many nodes with ARCAIC versions and too many that don't apply direct control over submissions.<br>
Let's stop spam together.<br>
<br>
