User permissions are granted based on user roles. 

Upon registration, examine the data submitted and verify (as best as you are able) that the user is legitimate. Malicious parties generally have user names that don't make sense, email addresses from questionable domains (e.g., Russia, Iran, and other uncommon suffixes). Be on the lookout for user names that aren't close to the email address and of user names ending in two or three capital letters.

NOTE: Most malicious parties will use gmail.com email addresses.
