Glad to hear it!  I've had that on my TODO list for a while.  Thanks for
giving me a good reason to get off my butt and do it :)

I do something a little similar to what you want to do.  I let them apply and
then all users "s10!s11" get sent to an "unauth" menu where they only have
options to change their e-mail, validate their e-mail address (which will
automatically upgrade them and let them move on), download Mystic files, or log
off.

So the only way to get access is to validate your e-mail address or wait for me
to manually upgrade you.  You're basically "in jail" until one of those two
things happens.  And if you try to validate an e-mail and then go change it to
something else, it'll instantly downgrade you and put you right back in jail
again.

I did that to stop any troll/hater accounts.  If they act up I'll have a valid
e-mail, hostname, location, and IP captured from them to work with.
