Anti Spam (Simple Soln.)

Post by HaGGardSmurf »

For whatever reason spam bots & spammers like to come here, so I suggest we make it so new members (post counts below 2?) have to have their posts and topics approved.

I know it will be a bit of work, but IMO it would only need to be done for a little while until people become aware that if they use their spamming software, their only wasting their time on our site.

Seems to me someone tipped a group of people off letting them know its easy to spam on our forum (well used to be)



Also, another way we could fix it would be not letting users with less than 5 posts, post links. Or create a word filter...
