Thread:Project:Support desk/Should I use CentralAuth or shared tables?/reply (2)

I think the DB prefix is the same for them, if that helps.

Is there anyone who would know how to get ConfirmAccount working with CentralAuth?

It would be good because it eliminates spam accounts (most spammers don't even submit requests at all) and would prevent duplicate accounts, even by non malicious users (who may, for example, create them instead of using the reset password email) or by the same guy who already trolled the site, and made racist comments about "[blond space Germans] would be eagerly awaited on Valhalla (a fictional Red Army based world) for this." He also ran an account under the disguise of a writing instructor for several months until Lookup User revealed it was fake. (He also never specified who he was actually working for) I would prefer not to have to be checking everyone's stats to make sure they're legitimate.
