![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Blimey, I go away for a while and come back and the Forum is FULL of spammers. I have just spent the last hour deleting posts and banning members who spam. This Forum does not accept Spammers so be warned...YOU WILL BE BANNED! This includes constant and nothing but "thnx for sharing" posts! Last edited 03-12-2008 at 08:28 PM. |

![]() | I hate that too. Someone should write a plugin for vbulletin that does not allow a posting of "thanks for sharing" and its derivatives ... Last edited 03-13-2008 at 09:19 AM. Reason: grammatical mistake |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | There is a great mod that i have over at TriPHP, which is called "One-touch Ban & Clean". It bans the user,deletes all the posts and bans the ip in one click! Saves so much time. |

![]() ![]() | Glad your back midlandi. Spamming is ruining good forums like this. I like the idea of a one touch ban and clean.

![]() | That is good idea. As far as I noticed the spam posts seems to be made with spam machine. Maybe it is needed to add more verification (human one) while registration and creating the thread?

![]() | Spam is spam, and every forum will have it, especially if they require people to have a certain number of posts to freely post everywhere else on the site.

![]() | i think spamming is more like: <big>Click here</big> - visit this link etc. -> that is SPAM, in my view. Or everytime posting the same welcome messages and posts...
