I'll try to make this short and to the point...
I used to be able to check my profile notifications, see the new members, open them in a new tab, check to make sure their IP addresses didn't match existing members, and then go to the admin section, check their IP address and email address on the no spam site, copy and paste each to a google search, and see what comes up, and then approve, refuse, or ban them.
Now this order of operations doesn't work. It says that user doesn't exist if I try to do the first/second step.
So now I have to accept them, then see if they are a duplicate account, and if so, delete them. I'd rather be able to screen them fully BEFORE I accept them, like I used to do.
I don't really like this change that happened a week or two ago, and my main moderator (who does the majority of the approvals) is complaining about it as well.
Can this be changed back to how it was? Or can you make it EVEN BETTER by having the IP address search for existing members directly where the accept/refuse/ban stuff is in the admin panel? That would simplify the process. Even greater if you could add links that all you to google search their email address and IP address too, just to make my life a few seconds faster and easier.
In an ideal world, here's how it would work for each in the admin panel:
1 email on no spam
2 email on google
3 ip address on no spam
4 ip address on google
5 ip address match to existing member account?
