Aussie Zone Signups (aussie.zone)

I'm wanting to lock down site signups. I need your help on what question to put to applicants that can be used to vet their application.

Why do this? I expect that as lemmy matures and grows, it will gain the attention of trolls etc that we do not want here.

Also with Beehaw defederating some larger instances with open signups, I'd like to avoid the same fate.

tell them to write a sentence that contains the words they're, there, and their, and use all three of them in a contextually accurate manner.

Current signup question is "Will you break the rules, be obnoxious or otherwise a negative presence on this site?" I'm open to suggestions for improvements :)

Off topic: weird bug. I'm seeing your post as having 5 upvotes and -1 downvotes. Not 1 downvote, negative one downvote.
